When you introduce yourself, do you say your last name?

I've noticed a lot of people these days introduce themselves with only their first name. I find it extremely annoying, particularly in more formal settings. I always say my first and last names when meeting someone for the first time.

Depends on who it is for me. If its a business thing, ill say first and last, but just about any other situation, it'd just be my first.

Most of the time, first name only at work since I am the only one with that name company wide. I guess I should use both names when away at a conference or meeting .

I give my first middle last and the suffix, every time

First and last in person, first only when on the phone.
Posted on 11/27/14 at 7:10 am to South Alabama Fan
First and last everytime.
Social could always become business and I need my last name in there.
