Just for the Countdownwiki, your name is currently Matt Coates - do you prefer Matt or Matthew?
That's it to be honest.

I think we originally followed The Countdown Page's lead in giving everyone the name under which they appeared on the show, apart from those annoying people who changed their name between appearances due to the patriarchal tyranny of marriage.

That's fine.
Of course, your name is Matthew and it says that on your name plate.
I will call you Matthew from now on.

Countdown is a very sophisticated affair. I think that's why they call you Matthew.

I put Matt on my application and they still called me Matthew. Although Carol did ask me what I preferred and I said either is fine so she alternated at each numbers game.

Matthew Green. Your name sounds familiar.
Did you appear on Countdown recently?

It must have been an honor and pleasure for you to meet Des O'Connor, was it?
