Life Your name

**Rain Man** · 02-21-2009, 11:26 PM

I go by my full formal name and it's what my parents always called me. My name doesn't really have a shortened version, so it's either go by the name or switch to the middle name or a nickname.

My middle name is cool, but doesn't match my persona at all, and no one will call me my preferred nickname of Coyote.

That's what I'm always telling Spike and Goober, but they won't listen.
