The Name Game


So I feel like some people get confused by what to call me, so here is my attempt to map out my names and who they should be used by:

Kathryn- gym teachers and close friends from Boothbay (specifically Caitlin, Breeze, Aaron), anyone at L'Arche Irenicon, Josh Jenkins, Rowan Walker and professors on the first day of class

Kate- most friends from Boothbay, friends from NJ, my family on a normal day, my co-workers at Palabra, Jamie Wyeth (not that he'd remember, but that's who he signed my books to)

Katie- my parents or sister (mostly my mother) when they're talking to me like they think I'm four

Ryn- all my friends at Gordon unless otherwise specified, professors after the first day of class, Devin Mellor

RynTin(Tin)- Lisa Abramowski, my roommate, other Gordon people who think they're clever

Rynnie- my roommate and other Gordon people who are feeling cutesy

Kath- my first grade teacher only.

RynnieRynRyn-Ashley Harrington

Kathleen- no. never.

You left out that Brian calls you "Katie". That could be my fault, though I'm not sure why.

Nice post!

I stick to one. Jonfun, Jonathan, and just for people to save a small breath Jon. So techincally three. I've had several nicknames that randomly still pop from time to time but its all good.

If I remember correctly all I've every done is call you, "Bloddy Pirate!" Hehe. May be not.
