I'm sick of people calling me Kim. I have always prefered Kimberley. Some people don't ask, they just call me Kim, and I feel embarrased saying, "I prefer Kimberley." Cause then they say sorry. Some people ask me straight, "can I call you Kim," and I say "I prefer Kimberley." I like it when people think about my feelings, not everone likes nicknames.

I see your point Kimberly. I would tell people that when they call you Kim. Get over the embarrassment of setting the record straight right away. It might make life easier on both of you.

well kim.. i mean kimberley you cant do anything about it except whine on yahoo answers and hope some dumb nut will feel sorry for you and give you an answer that they probably pulled out thier *** to make you feel better. But why dont you do something about it physically. Like putting on a big name tag that says HELLO my name is Kimberley.

Agree 100% with you. I don't get these celebs getting paid millions & millions of $$$ to play in movies where they eventually end up being nominated for a Razzie and/or sing songs where they actually just do nothing but roll their butt on their videos instead of actually singing with real talents. Doctors and police officers take more time, dilligence and hardwork to do yet they often don't get enough payment and treatment like those "celebs" do. So sad.... and disgusting, I must say!

People are just being casual and friendly with you when they use kim. If you prefer to be called kimberly, then ask them to call you kimberly but you are making a big deal out of nothing!

i wouldnt even worry. what a waste of your concern. seriously. when i was in kindy and year 1 i used to get called fatty, thats a name calling issue, who cares what people call you. i also get called kim, but my name is erin, kim is my friend, how do you think that feels. you need to loosen up and stop caring bout such trivial issues.

I'm with you on this one. Ive never liked mine shortened much. When I was a kid my name was a bit big for me, but I have grown into it. My pet hate is people on the phone. Telemarketers you can hang up on but we get clients ringing in and I don't even know them.......
Sorry. Rant over
ps: I prefer Kimberly and Alexandros too.

Its like this Kim, sorry I mean Kimmy, anyway Kimber =p it can be aggrivating Maybe if you get a charm with your full name on a necklace it might help a little, at least they don't call you fuzzy butt or something like that.

well,actually there's nothin wrong with that.Kim is a shorter way to call Kimberley,some people are lazy to call u with that long name,so relax.I also have this problem,my name is dimitri and people call me dimi,but i dont feel embarassed because i think it would be easier for people to memorise and call my name.

I have that problem but, it's the exact opposite. I myself love my nickname, Angel and hate my given name, Angela. Angela is so proper and it just doesn't suit me.
