NFT- Members, what is your first name

[LennG]

The official name is Leonard, but only my mother used that name for me, and when she did, I knew I was in trouble.

I used LennG only because many years ago in a land far far away, when we created a user name, it had to be 5 letters. I am really Len, but will answer to anything from 'hey, old man' to 'Hey, Giantfan' ( my license plate). But only the missus can call me Honey.

My name is Richard, but everyone (except cops, judges, doctors....or my mother when I'm in deep sh..) calls me Ric (w/no "k")

Can you really distinguish between someone calling you Ric vs. someone calling you Rick, LOL.

Anyway, same name for me, except everyone except my wife calls me Rich.

Nah...something I did as a kid starting around 4th or 5th grade. Everyone called me "Ricky" and I thought it was too infantile a nickname so I insisted on just Ric. It's still pronounced exactly like Rick, I just had to be different I guess. I had noticed that "Vic" was always spelled without a "k" so I thought, WTH, I'll do that with Rick and no one stopped me - no teacher or parent. Although now that I'm old (and not a bit wiser), they probably started spelling "Vic" without a "k" to distinguish from the masculine name Victor from the feminine name Victoria or Vicky/Vickie. Who knows?

That's a great name; one which reminds me:
Now I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you dont really care for music, do ya?
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth
The minor falls, the major lifts
The baffled king composing, Hallelujah

Cheers!

Rich: I'm not your wife and have called you Rich for years yet you never corrected me.  LOL 

In any event, I have a good friend Ric who gets angry if you write Rich or Rick, and another good friend Anne who erupts if you write Ann.

Both are excellent musicians.  Hmmm....  Probably a marketing thing.
