Probably because "Pam" just doesn't lend itself to any more shortening *g* Altho every so often I get some wit who thinks it's amusing to call me 'Pammy' which I despise thanks to a drunken aunt from back when I was a child.

People have preferences. I choose to use the name someone uses to introduce themself to me when addressing them, unless told otherwise.

As for the dweeberts who shorten your name on their own, well, personally, I find it rude, too. That's lazy and presumptuous of them.
