This has been a humorous thread! Typically anytime, outside work or personal situations, like when I am waiting for my pizza to be called, and they ask me my name, I just make one up. I don't really care what anyone calls me...lol. once I said my name was Dante and the guy at the counter started quoting Dante's Inferno. That was pretty cool. Especially since I recognized it.
In reality, my name is James. However, I go by a great many names...Jim is not one of them. I think it is because people usually assume I go by it. Anyhow...that's me.
