My real name is Patrik
People call me Patty(my sisters call me it), Paterikes (nickname from friends) Patrick(how Patrik is supposed to be) Patricio Quijote (my old xbox360 gamertag, yes people called me that)
When I was in kindergarten my teachers used to tell me I was spelling my name wrong.
When I brought home my paintings and whatever had my name on it, I'd have to write Patrick, and my mom got so mad at the teachers after I told her they made me spell it like that. :(

Ohh, i can´t say that people call me nicknames that i hate.

Real Name: Andreas
People usually call me Ante (Ann-the for example..hard to say really accurately..you say A with a different tone)
and that´s what spawned my username, just that it´s prounounced differently.

Dark(d)ante, just to make it easier to figure out.

My name is Greg, or in full, Gregor (-ugh).

When I was younger people used to call me "Greggy Eggy" due to how it rhymes, and randomly say "you smell eggy" blah blah blah. Now it wouldn't even bother me, but back then I got really paranoid over it because I thought I was a clean person. :(

As time moved on, people stopped calling me that (although others didnt) and one person in particular (he was a drug addict and thought he was cool) used to call me "G-man". I was good friends with this guy before he got into drugs, but I slowly started to dislike him over time, well anyway I hated being called g-man because I thought people would think I associate with him all the time if I had a name like that.

Real name: Emil

My friends sometime call me "E-MILF" or "E-mail" (the latter is often combo'ed with "The Female"), usually when they try to bother me during any form of competition or video gaming.

There's not many nicknames you can come up with for my name, but I sure do hate being called Ry-Ry.

Only my aunt can call me that.

My actual name is Tomi, I was named after my Dad.

Almost all my relatives are Hungarian, so because of my Dad having the same name as me they all tend to call me Tomika, lilterally little Tomi. I'm now pushing 21 so it kinda gets annoying.

The same people that know you can handle a sword. Clever. :-?

Eh, I hate it when someone gets my name wrong, Sabina (no) or Sabin (that's not it either). It's Sabine if you wanted to know. My nickname is Sab. Not Saab. Though we used to joke about me owning the company, haha.

I wonder how hard people try to mispronounce my last name. (ps my sig is the last name)

I often get ZITI, and it blows my mind how a 3 syallbal word cannot be pronounced correctly.

Ryan Oats.

In my case, my real name is Nigel.

Have fun pronouncing that or even reading it correctly, seems like most can't do it.

And if any of you have seem pics of me you'd wonder why that's my name.

Real name José Luís...most people call me Zé (which I actually prefer to being called José) ^^;.
Since my dad is also José, sometimes my mom calls me Zézinho (means little Zé)...which I don't like. :<
Good thing that it's sorta rare that my mom calls me like that. Most of the times, to not be the same as my dad, I'm just called Zé Luís. :>

They call me hell
They call me Stacey
They call me her
They call me Jane
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name

. . .

I hate it when people call me "Kyl." Look, my name is separated by two syllables, and that ain't one of them. But I'm not so much bothered by "Kyls," which is actually cute and not just completely incorrect. Another nickname that bothers me is, well, a few people thought it'd be cool to call "L" back on Outbreak because my user name was "Elle." It's only a four letter name, so I didn't understand why people needed to shorten it.

Appropriate nicknames: "Ky" and "Elle." Those are your options!

And oh God. Please don't call me "Kairi," you weeaboo.

How bout I call you mah Nigah and we call it close enough?



I like to hear how people pronounce my last name.

Marin. Some people say mah rin, with the first syllable being acute and the second syllable being obtuse while a few say ma rin where the first syllable is obtuse while second is acute. Then there are those who pronounce it Ma reen as if I'm a Marine. Really though, I don't care and always give people a bone and make them think they got it right. The 2nd version is the right way to say it though.

My first name is Charles, and I've been called Charlie and Chuck before. Chuck isn't so bad, but Charlie? I hope you have good health coverage...

The name I prefer going by is my middle name, Matthew. Oh jesus, the jokes that were made in school... :no: Kids are cruel.

After seeing your picture and hearing your voice...I'd have never guessed that was your name.

Send me a message over live or something with how to pronounce your name.

Some people, usually the little kids with Squeaky voices, think my Xbox Live gamertag is "NEW 8" it get's annoying. Or they know that my Gamertag is actually supposed to spell out "Noob"
and they try to make fun of me about when I obviously intentionally named myself that.

That pisses me off. I know that the name seems a bit ridiculous now but I made it when I was 7th grade and I thought it was a kick ass name at the time...

I'm pretty sure I know another one that makes you die inside. :wacko:

Besides that, being called Rush on there.
I'm not a robotic dog.
I'm not in a hurry either.
And rushing is the last thing I like to do in games.
Besides, if you misread it, that means you didn't even bother reading a four-letters username correctly, and that's insulting. :disapprove:

Nah, I think the names original and I've had alot of memories with this name WAY before Xbox 360 was even released.

Even if I don't like the name now at times, I still prefer to stick with what I originally came up with.
I've been using the same name on my character for PSO/PSU for almost 8 years now! :sleepy:
