In japan Indiana Jones has been called Indy Jones ever since its
first movie including movie titles like Indy jones(インディ・ジョーンズ)
and the 魔宮の伝説(the legend of the develish temple?).
I don't know why.
At least is it correct that Indy was the short term for Indiana and
Indianna was called Indy in the movies?
Maybe Indy is easy to pronunce for japanese, so the movie distributor
chose Indy.
I think we rarely say 'Indiana Jones' either when we talk about the
character in the conversation.
