[DanaC]

*Smiles* I suppose when we mould our own nickname we are selecting an identity. Mine was always Dani (pronounced daynee) amongst the family. I then went through a phase of Dana, which was at my own choosing. I just introduced myself as that when I went to a new job. Then a couple of mates started calling me Dani (pronounced Danni) and I rather liked that. I hated it as a kid, cause it made me sound like a boy lol. Now I mainly get called Danni, but Dana and Daynee are still current.

I did go through a very brief phase of being called Sweedy by J and the gang, many years ago but I have absolutely no recollection of the origin of that.
