Hahahah the only time I ever use my husband's full first name is when I'm really freaking pissed at him.
I agree that I'm not really a fan of nicknames. By a random quirk of fate, I've never gone by the nickname Nikki but that was because my parents already had a dog named Nikki before I was born (and goddamn did that dog suck ass - it was the meanest, stupidest poodle/peakaneese mix ever - which meant, of course, that it lived 17 miserable annoying years). My mom apparently liked the name Nicole so much but thought she'd never have kids and so named her dog that name.
So I guess you could say I was named after the shittiest dog ever, but at least I was never called Nikki (which I hate). And really, being named after the bitchiest dog in existence is still better than being named after a crazy ass Ayn Rand heroine.
