They almost always start out saying "Is XXXX there?" which I find really distasteful. I will respond with "May I ask who is calling?" the first few times. Then, when they still don't get it, I say "Look, YYY, XXXX has quite a few girls/boys that call and you really don't want me to guess incorrectly, do you? So next time tell me upfront who you are and to whom you wish to speak and everything will go much smoother." That usually suffices. Only in the most severe cases do I have to ask "Do you have a name?"
