When people metagame, even unintentionally, by calling me by the surname displayed in-game. My character's displayed name is an alias, or more accurately, a name she uses that non-Miqo'te can easily pronounce. Long ago when she lost her tribe, she discovered that non-Miqo'te could not properly say her birthname, and she got tired of the aggravating attempts, so she decided to just tell everyone her name was Manari, because everyone can say that.
She never ever has told anyone her surname is Onai, because it isn't. It's her tribe's name, and the game needed me to enter a last name to make the character.
So I always cringe every time someone calls her "Miss Onai" or something similar.
