My name is Tim, but call me Tom
Discussion
My name is Tim.
But all my life, people have mistakenly, on occasion, called me Tom. Not once or twice, at least once a fortnight someone will call me Tom.
It's usually people who I've met before but they probably can't quite remember my name, so they call me Tom.
I can completely understand people being unable to pronounce a name...I mean my wife is Irish and called Siobhán FFS (Still not quite sure how you get 'shi-vawn' from that, but anyway) - Tim? Obviously anyone can pronounce that, it's just they seem to confuse it with Tom.
Any other Tims share my life long hate of all Toms?
