re: His name is NOT HARRY! It's Harrison.

Yeah ok. Don't really see anywhere that I got defensive or rude. Who called who a bitch? I was just stating that my SIL frustrated me by insisting on calling him Harry, which I don't think she will do once he's here. It just got on my nerves that she's the third person wanting to call him a name that I don't like. I'm not a bitch and don't plan on being bitchy about it. If somebody calls him Harry, I will politely correct them (and if she doesn't like it, oh well. she lives 2000 miles away and I don't have to deal with her). I made this thread to #1 vent, and #2 see if others had similar issues with people shortening their childrens names, which there were. For who those out there who like nicknames, great. I just don't like this one.

Anyhow, I'm done with this thread. Harrison doesn't need me to stress out anymore over it. I got what I needed from it and more that I didn't. Done.

yeah, and i do tell them! they just forget within two seconds of meeting me or assume its okay.

I never called you a bitch. You're confusing me with someone else. If you say you didn't get defensive, that's fine. Perhaps I took your post wrong. I just disagree with you on this matter.
