1) HTF would a kid know my first name on the court?
2) If they did call me by my first name, I would say that's "Mr. ####" to you.
When I go to my kid's school, I don't call his teachers and principals Steve or Johnny, or Whitney. I address them as Mr. or Ms. Such-and-such. If we run into each other at a bar or the mall or where ever outside of a professional environment, then first names are expected.
It's really not that difficult.
