Do people named Kerry get called Kez in the USA?

Well I’m guessing, based on the horrified reactions of many Americans, that there is no point asking if a Karen is called Kaz then.

is that a thing in Australia?

Indubitably. I think it’s only names with r in the middle? We replace the r with a z and then drop the rest of the name.

Jerry= Jez

Kerry= Kez

Garry= Gaz or Gazza

Karen= Kaz

Barry= Baz

Sharon= Shaz or Shazza

Warren= Waz (pronounced like was)

So if I’m Loren, it would be Loz? Is that how you would truncate it?

Sarah=Saz?
