My personal view is that, given the spelling of parmigiana, parmi is the correct shortening of the word. But it sounds stupid. So the contraction of parma is a much better option, but should technically be written as parm'a. But that looks stupid. I blame the entire problem on the Italians, we wouldn't be having this argument at all if they just did the sensible thing and called it a schnitzel pizza.
I'd be happy calling it a parmo. Parmi/parmy no way in hell.
