My T says the body name all the time. We have asked her not to but she can't seem to help herself.

This could be the case. I'm someone who never really uses people's names when I'm talking to them--in emails, sure, like "Hi name," but not when talking (well, except my D, but that's different). But I have a few friends who do tend to use my name, even if it's just the two of us talking.
