That was also my father's nickname for the 40+ years that he worked for Western Electric, I worked there a while also and was then known as little zubbie, is perhaps as non-gender specific as I care to get. I also answer the phone on my desk as "ZUBBIE". People are then free to either get on with business, now having a handle by which to communicate with me or they can 2) Ask for me by name at which point I will glady give them my first name so that again communication is established with little or no friction. On the net use of the log name is so simple we hardly ever think to much of it.
