are fp+ transferable within the party

I really don't care either way if they say my name or not, it's not a secret lol Though my son's name is spelled differently and I am sure they would get it wrong. It happens and it is a minor annoyance to him but if it happened all day long it would probably become a big one.

I also think it would be unrealistic for the cms in line to do it, and if I was a cm I would quickly get tired of it.
 
I'm going to be very annoyed if CM's keep calling me by first name, all day long.

It smells of insincerity, disrespect and smarminess.

Walmart stopped the policy of cashiers calling credit card shoppers by their
names.
People disliked that, and it generated a large number of complaints.

Once you know that a CM can see your name because you are carrying an ID chip,
the "magic" can grow stale pretty quickly.

(Kids might find it fun, but there are also a lot of apprehensive parents
that won't find it appealing that thousands of unknown persons can
see/know/remember their kid's names.)

This very thing prompted a discussion with my six year old yesterday. We told her that even if someone calls her name she is not to go with anyone outside of the family. We explained that people might know her name but we would never ask a stranger to get her.
 
My point really is that you don't have to wear the birthday button at all. If it annoyed you to hear people you don't know calling you by name you could take it off.

With the magic band, you have to use it to redeem fastpass (or will have to very soon).

No I got your point....just saying that NOT wearing the button wasn't really an option, we wanted to celebrate her birthday.
 
We just got back from a week of testing the bands and FPP.

They actually greeted us by name maybe 20% of the time, if that. So it is not something they always do. And we were almost always the only ones entering the FP line with bands, so it wasn't like they had lots of people to greet.

I would not worry about the names. I think they mostly look for a "green light" for each person entering.
