I have a coworker who came in with the same hiring class with me, and works the opposite shift. My name is Leslie, and her name is Lindsay, and our coworkers constantly call us by eachothers names. It's gotten to the point that our sup has called the wrong employee on a cell (i.e. calling Lindsay's phone while she was here at work to ask me to come in early) and addressed me as her in an email asking a question (my response was "I don't think I'm going to give you an answer until you can remember my name!)."In the end I was the mean girl/or somebody's in between girl"~Neko Case

"Godamnit! Get in here!"Quoth Catwoman2965 View PostThat's like Bill Cosby when he says "I used to think my name Jesus Christ and my brother Russell was Dammit" If you've never seen "Bill Cosby: Himself" do, its hilarious!
*Cosby looks up and over his shoulder a bit*
"Dad... I'm Jesus Chrost, Godamnit's out playing baseball.""I call murder on that!"

I have four sisters and when my mom gets all flustered and angry at one of us, she runs through the names and usually ends it with "whoever pissed me off--get in here!"
My youngest sisters are twins and I get them confused. Usually I just call them "twin" if I need to speak with one, "hey, twin." Or I smash their names together or use their initials "Hey, K-B-..." etc.

Becks and I are identical twins. One of our bros-in-law calls us by both names. I am "LizBecky" and Becks is BeckyLiz."Quoth Rine View Post

I'm surprised at how many people can misspell my name.
They put it as "Erick"
?????!??!?!?!
It's "Eric". I would probably expect them to ask "C or K?" But to probably make up a name...

Hey, if it worked for Indiana Jones......Quoth Aldous View PostTo this day, my mom calls me the dog's name. The dead dog's name. I find it funny as hell to be called "Pep" Now considering that this dog was like a second child to my mother, and really all she had while I was at school/out and about and my dad was at work, I understand. But man it does something to your esteem to be called the dog's name.
Total surrender

I have called my fiance, whose name is Keith, all of the following, and multiple times each:
Harry, Nigel, Lauren, Mom, and Dad
The poor thing. These usually only come out when I am frustrated, or if he is behaving in a manner that reminds me of my family.

I've called my boy 'dad' on occasion.
I called him by my exes name once, though, that was worse.Deepak Chopra says, "Fear deprives people of choice. Fear shrinks the world into isolated, defensive enclaves. Fear spirals out of control. Fear makes everyday life seem clouded over with danger.
