I quite like Ben. I wish it wasn't Benjamin. Benjamin is rubbish. Unless you seperate it out. Ben Jamin' mon. Word. I try to use just Ben on as much official documentation as I can get away with.

I'd much prefer to be called something righteously awesome, like Zeus, or Thor, or Apollo Creed, or Okapi, or Zed, or Ra The Mighty Sun God, or Pharaoh. Pharaoh would be a bit mint.

Does anybody else which they had a different name?

  I've always thought the naming business a bit random.....insofar as you've no say in the matter....there is of course the posibility of changing your name if not happy with it a la Swindon Town Dave.   If you want to change your name, I'm sure TEFers would go along wth it.   Just let me now and I'll use it next time I see you.

But then you'd be called Thomas Thomas. That would be silly.

My middle name is William. That makes Benjamin look ace.
