This has happened to me a lot in my life--in fact one of my high school teachers called me my brother's name the entire school year. But I didn't feel belittled. Some people are just bad with names.
I've figured out how to break people of the habit: call them the name of their sibling. This fixes it real quick like.
- lotharbot 11y agoOne of my high school teachers had a rule that any time he called a student by a sibling's name, they got a point of extra credit. It happened most class periods to somebody, and that was with him being very deliberate about asking people to point it out and trying very hard not to do it.
