What's in a name?

[vollmus]

I've always rather looked forward to the day when I could go by Victoria instead of Vicki. It sounds so dignified—a side effect of being borrowed from a famous queen, I suppose—and if I adopt it, well, then I automatically gain a bit of that dignity, right?

It would be sort of nice to have people call me Vicki on their own, because they're good friends with me, not because I told them that's what I go by, I think.

What say you?
