HelpRe: Antonia doesn't have to be Toni (carry it on)

It totally depends on your relationship with the person!
If they're someone you trust isn't trying to dominate you by creating fake familiarity, but is really just being friendly, it's totally prissy to refuse their nickname. But if they're someone you just know is doing it to score a point somehow, it's intolerable.

To me, there is a difference between a silly nickname, and a shortened version of a full name that they just don't care for. When I posted, I was thinking more of the latter. Insisting on that when someone clearly doesn't like it is just plain weird.
