Calling them by their class because you don’t remember either
I always revert to calling them by their race/ancestry or using racial traits like long ears for elves. It makes playing old characters more authentic, lol.
I was in a party where one of the members was a trans woman (abt 2 years in) and her DND name became her actual name, she was testing it out with us 🥰
I personally refer to the characters as seperate entities, directly.
Damn! Mark Mercer strikes again!

Air. I ask you to ponder this.
There was a player in my group who’s character name and real name were fairly similar, so I ended up calling him his character’s name a lot. Now he has a new character and I keep calling him by the old character’s name by mistake
I dm’d a steady group at my FLGS for a couple years with people I didn’t already know. It took an embarrassingly long time to learn some of their real names. Definitely that last one for me.
calling them by a nickname because you don’t remember their character name but don’t want to break immersion
