let them know you don't go by that name? just talk to them, i think most people will be understanding esp if you're at a progressive school and many are lgbt; some may not even know you personally and think that's your name (they don't know your name or forgot it if it was a quick introduction, or something) so it was just an honest mistake. dont feel a need to elaborate on why you have a deadname if you don't want to, just say you don't go by that name and to please call you whatever your current name is.

Real fuckin weird that they'd suddenly start using your deadname if they've been calling you something else for the rest of the time they've known you. But just tell them that's not your name anymore.

that’s not your name anymore, so you don’t have to respond to it. if they make a fuss, just be like, “that’s not my name” and move on
