- Gareth to family
- G to university friends
- English to fellow lost drinkers when I lived in New York
- Garius to anyone who first met me digitally. From Civ 2 to forums
- John to those who met me from reading me. To the confusion of my brother: John https://twitter.com/mlazarusdean/status/1265999002786463745

And my 'family' name should have been Luke. My mother insisted.

Luke Skywalker Edwards.

But my father and her father conspired to register me as Gareth Luke instead.

My mother loved Star Wars until the day she died.

So will I.

(Although I always wanted to be called Han)

Oh, and Gareth when you see me on the BBC. John on ITV and Sky.

You have to show Auntie due respect.

And there are only six people on the planet who get to call me Gary.

They earned it.
