{{trope}}
Alice has just met a man named Bob, who seems like a perfectly nice person—until he uses her name. To which Alice realizes and possibly responds, "'''I neverNever toldTold youYou myMy nameName'''."
 
This trope is used to place suspicion on an otherwise ordinary character or to hint that there is more to the character than meets the eye. The person whose name is used does not necessarily have to notice; it could simply be a hint to the audience to pay more attention to the character who knew it without being told.
