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

I think it’s because we primarily use someone’s name to get that persons attention or to pay attention, for better or worse. If you are already invested in what’s going on and someone uses your name it almost feels like an unnecessary call out.

I feel like this could be a deep dive yt essay, because I wonder if it’s like this in other cultures and we deviated or it’s like that everywhere.
