Well, that is interesting. I do that as well, I say every other person's name but I can't say the name of this guy that I absolutely adore at work. We talk, we hug whenever we encounter each other, but I can't seem to call his name when we do talk. I said his name once while looking up at him, releasing from a hug to ask him a question and he blushed, walked a few steps away, then he answered the question while not looking in my direction and if any one heard me say his name, they would know I have deep feelings for him. I say his name as if I'm singing a sweet soft melody and privately I say it with such enthusiasm. I feel if I say his name every time I talk to him it will spark those feelings intensely and completely through me off track of what I would like to say to him, yet again I'm always forgetting what I wanted to say to him when I do encounter him.
So it could be, that if she calls your name, it could send shivers up and down her spine and excite those real feelings she has for you.

I can't speak for everyone, but I am shy usually around men that I am interested in, so I rarely say their name until we are at least dating or in high regard. I will say everyone's names, but the moment I have to say his name, I don't. I realize I am weird, but I usually care so much for him that I am afraid to say his name or some how he will know how I feel about him. I also can feel very nervous, but conversation needs to happen so I will speak to him like its anybody else - if I say his name, I will be acknowledging that he's not just anyone else, and I will have a difficult time communicating. I am more likely to say his name in private.
Are you sure she knows your name? Maybe she needs reminding? I think we're all a little narcissistic and assume people know us and think of us immediately when it's not true.
If she knows your name but won't say it maybe she doesn't like you that much but is doing it out of politeness.
then she see's you as a friend, when I see my best friend bryan I don't go oh hey bryan hows it goin... I go sup breh.. what ya up 2
drop your name in conversation in case she forgot it.

I don't think you should worry too much, is not such a big deal ;), normally when I've got confidence with some people I also don't say their names, but if I don't know them very well or I don't have confidence with them I do say their names when I greet them, but normally I just use peoples names when talking to emphasize something :)
No clue. That's weird, you should honestly call her on it and see what happens. Maybe you have the same name as a horrible ex-boyfriend so she doesn't want to associate that name (thus not saying it) with you.
"Say my name, say my name, you acting kind a shady, ain't calling me baby, why the sudden change..." - Now I've got that song stuck in my head, lol.
she doesn't know it ? or likes you ?
She doesn't remember it
