Interesting point. Some names seem to fit children or adolescents better than adults, for instance Tommy can become Tom. Some people acquire several names or nicknames and each serves a different purpose. Some authors use a pen name and different writers choose for different reasons. Karen (Out of Africa) Blixen was nicknamed Tanne by her family but changed it to Tania as it sounded more sophisticated. I'm content with my name but its short and difficult to turn into something else.
