They need to come up with a ceremony, or rite of passage, or even just decide on an age, for when you're allowed to call adults by their first names. I still feel weird doing that sometimes.
Well, more specifically that ritual also has to do with the use of informal "du" vs. formal "Sie" as your pronoun of address, but it's inclusive of using first names.
