Wow, yes that is rude.

Same thing goes on with me and my family. My old nickname was Mandy until the eighth grade, then I started preferring to be called by my real name. People tend to emphasize the "Man" in Mandy, and I really hated it. Everyone at school referred to me by my real name, but my family never caught on. They still call me Mandy and I have to reiterate in my mind who it is they're referring to. My boyfriend refers to me by my real name and they think it's "cute", but it's my preferred name. I shudder whenever they call me Mandy and I think they do it deliberately, considering the past I've had with them. I've told them several times that I haven't gone by Mandy in the past 10 years, however they never catch on.
