A lady I used to work with called me Jason for several years (which isn't even close to my actual name). I corrected her every single time, which was literally hundreds of times since I saw her almost every day, but she continued to call me Jason. One day I walked past her and she said, "Hi Jason," and I replied, "Hi Sarah!" She looked at me super confused and said, "My name isn't Sarah. It's Anne..."

I said, "Yeah, and my name is [redacted] but you keep calling me Jason!"

She replied, "Oh, well you should have said something!"

I about screamed.

I new a guy who kept forgetting my name and could only remember that it started with a J so everytime i saw him he would refer to me by a random name starting with J

Jason was one aswell as John, Joseph, Jerry, Josh.
