我们公司一个叫Curtis，每次我都叫他Curts，should call him Curt, no "s".

冥顽脑袋

这加拿大多元文化，名字也多种多样。作为公司IT人员，创建管理帐户煞是头疼。

1 J. v9 Z) w2 X5 F0 E! S有的人姓奇长，十几个字母吧；中国的短才2个至七个。
, ?1 u9 W% r& t1 q- K; Y这昵称还真得有个对照表；
3 z6 s, f5 ~" N' M有的是复姓，早年因系统不支持，只得变用mid-name，他本人也不爽；
女士一结婚，又改从夫姓；
2 r8 e' T" M  c4 j  w  B% g% M0 U魁省来的拼写都的变；

浪里黑条

佘靖说的很对。
