NickName Phobia

I was born with a NickName then i Got the real name. Nicknames , i feel more importatant then names was relaised by me today when my Cousin Rakesh was called as Rocky by one of his friend. The friend told me that he is known by that name in college. I was suprised, another nickname, Oh no not again. I have been facing the situatution of changing nicknams since i was born. The faintest memories of childhood reminds me that my mother used to call me something else, and neighbours something else and when i used to village I was called something else. Then we shifted to rajasthan and we had this new place with new name, people here were different they modified my name, made it short and renamed me. Then school teachers found my sirname very intresting and whole class called each other by their respective sirnames. We found this naming convention very easy and used to called our teachers in similar fashion. Few teachers also got their names according to their behavior and teaching patterns. Then came the romatic days, the couples rechristened themeselves and people got another name. THen in college and after I again got new names. So many names to count each at different occasions. Still the main name remains same and no one close remembers you by that name. Nicknames are important, Very important
