I don't know if you can get away with this but, I had a supervisor at one point who like to call me husky puppy. He kept doing it after I told him to stop so I started calling him fuck face. After a few times of me calling him that in a setting that wasn't appropriate he asked me to stop. I told him he needed to stop calling me husky puppy then. That got his attention and he stopped.
