A name itself does not matter.
A rose is a rose by any name!
But why this big fuss for being referred to
by one's own real name??? :noidea:

   [h=3]Don’t call Jayalalithaa by name: Tamil Nadu Speaker[/h] Chennai: Is addressing a senior member of the House, especially a former Chief Minister, by his name without prefixing the customary title discourteous? The opposition DMK certainly thinks so as it took strong exception to a legislator from the ruling AIADMK calling their veteran party chief M. Karunanidhi by his name in the Assembly on Monday. Amid noisy scenes, the Speaker P. Dhanapal then ruled that the Chief Minister (Ms J. Jayalalithaa) should not be called by her name. The interesting debate over how to address a former Chief Minister and the current Chief Minister in the Assembly arose when AIADMK’s Tiruttani legislator P. M. Narasimhan, while taking part in the discussion on the revised Budget for 2016–17 fiscal, called the DMK president by his name.
