Welcome to our slash Am I the Jerk, where this man wonders if he's in the right or the wrong for giving a fake name at Starbucks

when his girlfriend gets extremely angry at him for doing so.

Am I the jerk for giving a fake name at Starbucks?

All right, so I am a 22 year old man,

and I think this whole thing is ridiculous.

But my girlfriend is really angry at me,

so here we go.

I don't like giving my real name

at places like Starbucks and similar stores, where they shout out your name when the order is ready.

I can't tell you why. I have a normal reasonably common name that I like fine enough, but for some reason it majorly creeps me out when a barista shouts my name

through a room full of strangers. I guess it's just some harmless quirk I have, at

least to me. So whenever I'm at a store where they want your name I

say it's Tom.
