I usually let this go (since it doesn't happen often) but called someone out on an email exchange between us where my name went from 'Danny' the first 5 or so times to 'Dani' the last two.

Clearly knew my name, since it's everywhere on the emails, so it's either laziness or intent.

Lol they're trying to get under your skin. Don't even mention it. If they cannot get your name right (which they obviously can), then playing into their hand is only going to enable them further and have them keep pushing your buttons.

Let it be water off your back, and know that you would never stoop as low as them.

Forgot to mention this is at work.

Yeah I know, and what I said still stands, my friend. Workplace or personal life, doesn't matter; these people exist everywhere.
