Arnold will always be Arnold to me, and same with Bez, Betty Boop, I think the others I managed to call by their real names easier than those 3 hehehehe

I had to make an effort to remember to use real names with JB and Acc.
and they called me sunny (I think...dang beer....)
which is fine cuz it's one of my nicknames anyway. :-6

Theia and I walk around Truro with her calling me Betty, we get some funny looks as it makes me feel 80! I sometimes call her Theia, sometimes I use her real name.
Buttercup is always Butter and I always call Venus by her screen name when we chat.
Arnie will always be Arnie, it suits him.
I tend to use Hamsters real name as I knew her first in RL and I'd like to take this opportunity to apologise for introducing her to FG
