Kenri 02/07/23 9:13:00 AM #8:	It was a little annoying in college because another person in my major had my last name as his first.

I also dated a girl who didn't even know my first name for like 6 months I prefer to be called by that nickname, but I'm not sure if that's in the spirit of the question since it's technically not my last name.

Shattered 02/07/23 9:43:00 AM #13:	I don't think anyone has ever called me by just my last name. It would be weird.

SuperVergil 02/07/23 12:30:06 PM #21:	Here in Italy strangers, co-workers, even one's companions in school all tend to use the last name. Using one's first name is usually reserved for those who know you on a personal level.
