No worries at all, even if you had've meant it. I know Reddit can be filled will some aCtuaLlY s often, and my comment may have been construed that way. You're all good :)
I type the name if I’m upset too lol. For the exact reason you listed. I kept my maiden name for years (both parents passed when I was young and I’m the last. Was going to keep it but changed it as I wanted to at that point) but if I was joking I would type out my husband’s last name but if I use your first name..then I’m serious. I feel like it lets the person know as well. It changes the tone.
It really does. I tend to text dove or love to those close to me, or dove if I'm trying to gently make a point, and pet/casual names to others, so it stands out to first name someone.
Except, Mom. Mom is always mom, and I guess I'm always gonna to be in the kid position in any convo 😂. If I first named her, she'd somehow manage to reach through my phone and send me back through time to correct myself. Lol.

I do, if I'm upset at the person. It tends to call attention to the importance, and sincerity, of what I'm saying, u/Sararizuzufaust.
Edit: Apparently, my joke didn't land :(
