      We used to call each other by the surnames in middle school.

      That is very much not standard. Everyone just did it. I didn’t even remember to respond to my first name the first few weeks of high school.

        That was my experience in most shop environments, you just start getting called by your surname.

        I’ve only seen that for people with similar first names as other people in a school or workplace. Then again, I was born just before the Brayden/Ayden/Mxyzptlkayden generation.
