While privacy isn't exactly a concern I share regarding the names, it seems like the majority of baristas do have it. I think Starbucks should keep in mind that Baristas' opinions are supposedly important.

I visit a local Starbucks several times a week. A couple of the employees know my name and greet me using my name. I REALLY APPRECIATE the personal communication. It makes me feel good. I would also like to know their names. MOST of them are pleasant and smile when taking my order, but I wish I could call them by name.

I understand that name tags are a negative with Starbucks??? I would think the baristas would enjoy being spoken to on a 'personal' level too.

If you really want to know the name of the barista that makes your drink, then ask. It is really quite simple and easy to do.

Customers don't wear name tags, but partners find the significance in remembering their names. As a customer, how important are your Barista's names?

what a fantastic idea! as a partner I know many of the customer's names, but very few know mine... not only do I feel as if the customer would like to know the name of the person who is making their beverage, but I would like them to know my name. It is the customer-partner relationship that Starbucks is always talking about.

The name tags my DM has us wearing are CHEAP and uncomfortable to wear. For over three years I haven't had to wear a name tag. However, since we've had to wear name tags I haven't been called "Natalie" or "Jennifer" when my name is Nicole. So I guess that's a plus.
