I have a friend who has been attempting for the past couple of years to change from Jeff to J (I think no period, but I can't recall for sure). He decided there were too many Jeffs in the world (at least 3 in the small company that he works for) and he's never liked the way it worked with his last name. I'm not very good at calling people who change their names by something new, so I still say Jeff at least 1/2 the time. Plus his nickname with me is "Hot Jeff" (these nicknames really pissed off "Cold Jeff" at the time of naming), and for some reason "Hot J" just doesn't work as well for me.

If someone had told me (speaking, not writing) about this Jeff person wanting to be called "J" instead of "Jeff" I would have thought that he wanted to be called "Jay." I'm not sure whether that rises to the level of "Weird that."
