Comment left Nov 12, 2009: "I LOVE my name!! I was born in 1963 and when I went through school there was 4 of us "Diane's" in the same grade all through our school years. We were all very good friends! No one ever shortened our names back then, but all I hear now is "D" or "Di" or "Di-Di" I hate that!" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Apr 05, 2009: "I have a ten yr old girl named Diane and she hates the name, she says she wishes I would name her after me(Alejandra) instead of Diane, her full name is Diane Alexandra, I think it sounds beautiful but she just doesn't like it." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Dec 21, 2008: "I have always liked my name. When I was Very young - I bragged that I could fit the letters on one hand. -- For a 6 year old, I suppose that was wonderful.. I was born in the 50's when the name was extremely popular and there were always a few in my class. Once we formed a team in the school yard of Diane's -- of course we were awesome! My Mother said there was a popular song after the War called "Smile For Me, My Diane" and that was the reason for its popularity during those years." (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Nov 06, 2007: "My name is Diane, and I am under 40. I love my name. There is rarely a time when I am in the same room with another Diane. My biggest problem is my dad's side of the family tends to call me Diana, but I keep saying under my breath, "there is no A at the end of my name!"" (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Jun 21, 2007: "My name is Diane and I like the way it is spelt. It is annoying though when people spell it Dianne. It feels the same as if your name was David and they spelt it Davvid!
I was named after my mothers doll." (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Dec 19, 2006: "My name is Diane and I love it. It is not too frilly or girly and it is not that common or overused. Meeting another Diane makes me feel like we share something special instead of "oh no, not another one". I also like when those closest to me call me Di. Everyone needs a one-syllable, pet name." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Dec 10, 2006: "My name is Diane and I've always hated people shortening it to Di (I always think of "die")... personally I think Diana is a prettier name. The only other Diane's I've met have been older women rather than ones from my generation." (Report as inappropriate)
