    Name+Surname.

    I’ve got a policy of always having that pattern since I had 5 Michaels, 3 Daniels and 4 Davids with no way of telling them apart.

    She’s twice in my phone. First is “1[name]”, second is “ICE”. ICE stands for In Case of Emrgency. It’s not really nescecary anymore, because android has a build-in emergency contact function now. It’s a remnant of a simpler time where nokia was still a prominent phone manufacturer.

    My husband is in my phone with a nickname of his old name. He took on a new name from our culture when he became a naturalized citizen, but I never changed it and he doesn’t mind. I was in his phone as “[my name] from café X”, until he got a new phone last year. The first thing he did was take me on a date to a new café and proudly enter my number into his new phone as “[my name] from café Y”.

    When we were not-quite engaged and doing long-distance, my wife ganked my dumbphone and quickly edited my contact from {her name} to {her name}-mywife, no spaces, no capital letters. So now, twenty+ years later, that’s what it still says, and that’s how I address greeting card envelopes to her.

    I just put people’s names in my phone as their actual first and last name; if I call them something else I put that name in the nickname field.

    Super basic “skill” to do this. 😒
