I've been teased.
in reply to a message by mirfak
A lot, actually. My name is used quite often for place names and everyone gets a big kick out of it. Drives me batty but I've learned to live with it. I even wore my Hoagie Haven t-shirt until it wore out.
My brother-in-law Damian was also teased a bit for his name but he, too, learned to take it in good humor.

But maliciously?
Enthrophy's talking about bullies. People teasing specifically to hurt the other person.
I tease my friends. Sometimes I tease them about their names, but I don't count that because the intent isn't malicious and they know it.

I've been maliciously teased, yes.
But as it has been said before: Certain kids are going to be teased no matter what and others won't. It could get malicious at some point - I would have hated to be a Monica during the Monica Lewinksy debacle - but overall? No.
But there is teasing about names. Even if it's not malicious it can get tiring, believe me.
