How do you feel about people using your real name?

haha Freddie Mercury.
I miss his work. He had a great voice.

As far as my name goes, I could care less. Which ever you feel the need to use uhhuhher or Brandi.

I don't really care about my name, it's my last name i'm never telling online!!!

yay for resurrecting old topics

I don't want people calling me by my real name. Unless my real name were Abner. Then I'd have no qualms.

And I always call Shea by her first name.

Though really, dear, you're not calling me by my first name. =)

It's true. Or her name at all.

So somehow Courtney is no longer your first name NOR your real name? 'Cos that's what I was referring to, not Shea--which is just a nickname of your middle name. I KNOW THESE THINGS.

Then why would you say "Shea" when referring to her? It's a bit misleading.

probably because most people here wouldn't know who he was talking about.

but it's true, he does often call me courtney.

I would actually prefer it if people called me by my real name. The only reason my username isn't Ian is so anyone from IGN who joins will recognize me. Oddly enough, I always make usernames that aren't Ian, yet I don't like people giving me nicknames in real life.

I didn't know before seeing this thread that Zach and Chris don't like being called by their real names.
