It’s just because I like the way my middle name sounds together with my last name. My full name is Jeffrey Neil Crockett, but I’ve always thought that Neil Jeffrey Crockett sounded better. I was always way too lazy to do anything about it, though. Is it worth doing anything like, legally speaking, or should I just get people to call me Neil?
Or “Hi, call me Neil” or “You - you get to call me Neil”.
i like to be brief, so…
“hi, i’m neil”
no need to say “i used to be jeff” because they don’t care. just"hi i’m neil" or “hi i’m neil, nice to meet you”
