People App - how to view contacts by nickname

[oldchap]

Does anyone know how to view your contact list by their "Nickname" you set in the People app? You know what i mean? How do you get the Nickname to show up when receiving a call from someone, rather than their First and Last name. I'm looking through the menu and there only seems to be an option for First name and Last name. Maybe there's an app in the Marketplace that gives you extended options?

(There are some close family members that i have pet names for and I'd rather not see their formal first and last name when they call. Rather use their informal pet names when i text and call)

I could just enter the nickname i want in the Name field, but then this would mess up my contact list in my Gmail account when i go to use a desktop. So I'd rather keep their formal first and last name, but just view them and sort them with the nickname.

Make a new contact with the same number using the nickname.
You may have to start the nickname with a "." so it will be the on that shows up.
Never mind I tried it and it didn't work.

You have to hit space before you put in the nickname if it doesnt come first in the alphabet.
