I had a coworker who always "forgot" I went by Barbara and shortened my name to Barb, knowing full well disliked the nickname. She kept telling me that I was being overly sensitive. So I started calling her an unpopular variation of her name, one that I knew she hated (Alexis, when her name was really Lexy). It only took three times of doing this before she loudly exclaimed, "My name is NOT Alexis!" I looked her dead in the eye and replied, "Exactly. And my name isn't Barb." She never "forgot" my name again.
