Personal headcanon: Only Dick’s siblings & very closest friends can make jokes about his name without it bothering him. Oh, he’ll smile, he’ll laugh, he’ll take it in stride, but it does bother him. The difference is those people he’s okay with have all laid someone out flat with a single punch & zero hesitation for doing the same.
Their teasing is loving. They’ve all called eachother much worse affectionately, and he knows they associate his name more with exasperating affection than actual insults. Nobody else gets to say that.
#dick grayson#robin#richard grayson#nightwing#teen titans#batman#my life#mine#batfam#//#Mostly#this comes from a mental image I have of Dick being really bothered by Jason’s various insulting nicknames#right up until someone else makes a snide comment and Jason punches them right out in public as hard as he can.#‘’You can call him Richard. Or Grayson. Or Mister if you’re feelin’ fancy. Or you can call him nothin’. Got it?’’#Jason visibly /barely/ resists spitting on them. Then turns around & is visibly embarrassed to realize Dick saw all that.#That’s what Dick remembers every time Jason calls him Dickhead: scrawny little 13yrold Jason Todd laying out someone twice his weight#in the name of his big brother’s honor.#There are similar stories for like half of the Titans and all the other batkids. And he loves them all. So much.
