I'd be happy to be called or call myself sceptic or skeptic or Skeptiker, the problem is that most people I meet are unfamiliar with the ideas of the modern science based skeptic movement and look puzzled or amused when I use the term. It just doesn't ring a bell for most people. When I told my family that there is a section of the skeptics club in our city they laughed because they couldn't tell from the name what they do, and would say something like "what, do they like meet and then be unsure about things together???"
