My Odysseus themed character when the fey don’t know why it’s not working 😏

Depending on the way the fey phrased the request you may either have insulted it, or broken a deal. If it asks to have your name and you answer with "yes, my name is ." You have lied to it and broken a simple transaction. It may even be justified in using ever more harsh measures to extract your name from you, as it has a legitimate claim on it. At least that is the way I would play such a situation for the fey. For me the thing is that trying to outsmart them rarely works, because they know netter in which rules they operate than you do. A answer like "You may not have my name, but you can call me . " Should work better in my opinion. Sorry for the wall of text btw. Just being bored out of my mind rn.

Making them deal with the linguistic juggling of the Fey is how to have fun with rules lawyer players

But you won’t get far talking to no one!

Unironically I keep a devil on retainer for this. I've interacted with the Fae twice and it went poorly both times. I'm not speaking to them again without my lawyer present.
