I know a couple whom I call Pu and Ming, they are around my parents age.
They also call me Pu, because that is what they wanted their son to call me. He initially called me Bong but they wanted him to call me Pu - they thought he was being too casual and not respectful enough.
So they started calling me Pu. It was weird at first but now seems normal, even if others get surprised when they do it in public.
i was out in the province in my friends village for the new year, and there was a large group of us eating and drinking and talking,
i respectfully called their next door neighbor, an elder gentleman Om,
i then called another lady Ming, to which a number of friends noticed and pointed out that it was his wife and so we all had a laugh about it and it was an on going joke for the night, and everytime we cheersed id do them both together saying Pu Ming Pu Ming
