I went by a different name all through college and the later half of HS. I got the name pegged on me in HS and then when I went to college I was in the... shipping and exports business. I decided a nickname (Which I had been going by for a year or so) was a great way to mask myself socially while still being able to network for the sales and distribution aspect of my business venture.

I have the same problem that clavus and smeth mentioned. I have college friends showing up and they know me only by my nickname, people that I became friends with outside of college know me by my real name. There was some spillover with both sets of friends, as college friends started calling me by my real name and the post-college friends started calling me by my nickname.

There are friends/acquaintances from college that couldn't ever call me by my real name, they say it just sounds weird. Actually, a few people on TFP only know me by my college nickname. Funny world.
