Real name vs Alias, which one you choose?

[harunomasu]

Today, there's a very funny thing happen in my neighborhood. So, one of my internet friends who live near me want to come to my house and play, as well as to copy some of my Arashi files since her internet is not good. I said ok to her and give her my address. Apparently, I forget to give her my real name

So that happen to you too :D

All of my friend who are Arashian often call me Yumi while my real name is of course not that. They come to my house and call me "Yumi~!" which is really confusing for my neighbours.
And I have a different name at home, my family call me that since I was born, and my neighbours are too familiar with that name that they forget my real name or someone don't even know it. Sometimes my friends & the postman ask for me, calling my real name and no one know it's me until a member of my family come out :))
The most epic thing about my names happened when I was in elementary school. I studied at the school my mom was teaching. Once, my 4th grade homeroom teacher started talking about me "Your child, (using my real name)...", my mom was like "Who's that?" =))

But I've already got used to "Yumi" so it will be kind of weird if someone from this fandom call me by my real name or my name at home. I guess maybe you feel like that too :)

Yeah XD The funny thing now is, when I go to work this morning, all my neighbors calling me with my nickname "Juu". Maybe they think that's my name now LOL

But isn't that so LOL that your own mother forget your real name? XDDD

My family never call me by my real name so I guess when someone suddenly start talking about me using it, my mom temporary forgot that it's my real name LOL

[harunomasu]

LOL Why your family never call you by your real name?

[kanu_x]

I lol so hard when reading this. I never knew such a thing happens. We use nicknames a lot here too, not arashi related though. Sometimes you start wondering what a person's real name is. And then sometimes you learn that a nickname is actually a real name or vice versa. orz

[harunomasu]

Seriously? XD That would be awesome though, thinking that it's just nickname but actually it's a real name LOL
Right? I was LOL-ing too when my friend finally found me inside my room and said, "Why your neighbors didn't know that you're called Juu?" XDDD

LOL. same experience with my brother, his nickname is mediq because he studied dentistry or I think when he was freshman he always got sick n got into medical room, ROFL. So his friends called to my house asked 'is Mediq there?'. My mother was 'Who??'.

[harunomasu]

LOL Seriously? He got that nickname because he always got sick? XDDDDD Your mother must have been very confused indeed LOL

[miha_bara]

LOL-ing reading your post. now your neighbour know your nickname after, how many years...*start counting from 2005* XDD

[harunomasu]

After 7 years LOL Yeah, it's so funny this morning when I prepare myself to go to work and one of my neighbors said, "Oh, good morning, Juu" XDD

[chan4yasu]

LOL!! it happens to me too when everyone came/called me at home with ecchan XD~ but now they know if my friends call me with my real name, so it will be my real life friends.. if it's ecchan, so it's japan's fandom related XDDDDD~

[harunomasu]

LOl Even though I know your real name it's just hard to call you like that XDDD But now even my real life friends starting to use "Juu" XD
