My Name Is...

Shake zula, tha mic rula, the old schoolah...

so it has been revealed to me that for some time I have been abbreviating Duamuteffe's name incorrectly. I have always refered to her as Daum, for no real reason other than its the way i first processed her name and haven't discovered the discrepency since. Its funny how the mind can get used to a word and thereafter skip over it, getting the meaning of it but ignoring the real word. I recall a study that found that humans don't even recognize the word "of" in a sentence.
anyways, i just want to know if a change would be polite, i can understand that i would be put off if someone called me Dug, even if it is what they've always done.

Thoughts?
