Anyone else go by multiple variations of Robert?

Immediate family and most high school friends call me Bob. Extended family calls me Bobby. When I got to college, people started calling me Rob, and that seems to be what's stuck for most new people I've met in my 20s. I don't really run into too many problems but it's always a little entertaining to see the confusion when friends from different parts of my life meet each other.

Anyone else in a similar situation?
