You have two options. Put up with it or tell him to knock it off. Calmly but firmly say, "please do not call me honey, call me [your name]." Then I'd document the date, time and circumstance of my saying that. I'm pretty sure I work on one of the layers of hell. Here I have to contend with people thinking they can hug me or call me "Miss [my name--sometimes my first, sometimes my last]" -- that sort of southern-fried pseudo-deference makes my skin crawl almost as much as someone having the gall to think I welcome them touching me. Just the other day one of the creepiest people in my cellblock went to hug me. I moved sideways to get away from that.
