Literally what it says in the title. It feels odd that they should call me my first name, but at the same time, it IS my name. Should I encourage them to call me dad? Or should I just roll with it? I wonder why culturally we lean on these pseudonyms so much. They hear me and my wife call each other our first names, so why would I insist they call me by a title, even if it is meant to be affectionate? Nobody in our family has ever called Aunts and Uncles those titles, just their names. I dont know. Being called my first name by my kid for some reason sounds jarring, though I find no logical reason to care.
