I always feel weird about using people's first names in writing like this. "Darius". "Robin". It reads as borderline hostile to use the last names, though -- like an academic trying to pick a fight

I promise I'm not desperately trying for chumminess with people I've never met! We don't have a good name etiquette for this stuff!! I don't even *use* my last name when I can get away with it

@maya ha! I am inclined to refer to you as "Maya" so it's fine by me

@darius at my work there's a certain Status associated with being invoked every time as "<first name> <last name>". I wonder how you get that kind of aura on something digital. spoken, it feels like the right kind of respectful, but typed out, it looks a bit like I've lost some marbles
