By the way, my name was originally a diminutive of another name and I was always being called by the full name when I was a child (and was bullied by some bitches on the strength of the fact that I did not have a "proper" name). Nowadays, you would never think of it as a diminutive of another name. I spent the whole time, even as a small child, correcting people. Even now, when asked to fill in official forms, I get asked if I have written my full name. (Yes thank you, I know how to fill in an oficial form!) Despite the bullying, I wouldn't change my name and I think it was a bit character building as a child, having to assert what your name was in the face of so much oppostion.
