[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Make her middle name grandma's name. Simple.[/quote] OP said no to that in her post. [/quote] Then she’s likely opting to create a weird headache for her kid. Like other posters, I know plenty of kids and adults who go by unrelated nicknames—but mostly in the family unit. I know a guy whose close friends from childhood and relatives call him Peeper—but he wasn’t called that at school or at work. I had a HS classmate who went by Jane. Her first and middle names weren’t Jane (not even close). She stopped using that name in college. How could you use what is essentially an alias at work? Are you talking about using a silly nickname like Ladybird or a traditional name like Jane? FWIW, I would hyphenate the last names and use grandma’s name as the middle. [/quote]
