Comment on Is it weird that I cringe whenever someone calls my name and I avoid using peoples names when talking to them?

i feel that. i assumed it is an autistic trait … also theres a trans thing in my life. i like my new name a lot better.

still there are situations, in which i think it’s unneccesarry to say my name. especially , when you already have my attention. people pointed to ‘removing distance’ as a function. i usually like my distance. “hi, kluczyczka.” sounds waaay to forward, as if you want to eat me. if you already have my attention, just say “hi”. …

in langiages which have strong formal language, i tend to use these forms a lot more than others too, this usually uses the family name , which has a nice distance to it?
