Im 20, my little 17 year old brother died by suicide in early 2018, to cope i tried to do music and went my the name "lil (name)". I had braids, rapped and stupid hair colors and did dumb shit to try and avoid my feelings....long story short it was a huge phase and it was very embarrassing and cringey since it was i a small town. I dealt with my feelings near the end of last year. Its been almost a year since. However these douchebags from my town always shout me down in public and say shit like "lil (name)! Yo bro youre the best rapper alive!!" And act like douchebags. These are the types where if u get mad they say stuff like "jeez man calm down it was a joke" even though its not and telling them to stop isnt an option. Im tired of people calling me the name i made for myself. It was a rough part of my life and a creative outlet coping mechanism and i just wanna put it behind me since its been a year.

What should i do next time these douchebags shout me down again. It happens whenever im at a party, or in a parkinglot at night. They always do it and ignoring them hasnt worked. I havent told them to stop calling me that because that obviously will have the opposite effect where they will call me it to get a rise. They obviously arent "fans" theyre being dicks. I was gonna fight them but tbh they are all rich kid hockey jocks who would sue if i beat the shit out of them. Also moving isnt logistically possible right now.

tl;dr - i was coping with trauma and using music, my music career was cringeworthy, jock douchebags keep making fun of it years later and im not even in high school, cant move, dont want to/cant afford to fight them, how do i put an end to their bullying shit while maintaining frame?

So if i cant tell them to stop, i cant move and hitting them is garenteed lawsuit so thats out what can i do to put an end to the teasing? Its getting annoying...
