My Granny - christened Mary Noreen - was known as John to everybody. Apparently her mum and dad wanted a boy! Having said that, her sister was Birdie (real name Thursa) and there were Buddies and Bullies and all sorts of things. I had always supposed it an Anglo-Indian thing, but perhaps it was more widespread than that!
