Why is he suddenly using my name all the time when he never really did before?

I've known this a guy awhile. I always really liked him. He had initially been very shy with me and people would tell me that he would get really jealous of other guys that knew me.

But I won't put any more effort into him since he is always drawing close and pulling away at the same time. Flirting hard and showing clear interest in person but never following up via phone or text. Especially when I reciprocate interest he will disappear on me. When ignored him, he committed the dreaded accidental text and fake wrong number crimes on me. That was awhile ago.

Then he would make plans and not follow through.

I did give him a cold shoulder on purpose and told him I wasn't happy about the way he was acting with me. After getting it off my chest, I all but ignored him.

I had been helping out a friend of his and I often talk with the friend freely about the issue I was assisting him with. This meant I spoke to his friend more than I did him.

Recently, the guy I still do like always calls me by name and does these little helpful things. It doesn't change much for me since I've deleted his number due to his flakiness. I am asking because I am curious why he would suddenly start using my name when he never really did before.
Baby say my name.

Not that anyone cares but yeah he tatoally is trying to get back in my good graces but he killed the attraction with all the wishy washiness so we are friendly and respectful.
