I've had recommendations from an escort friend before, honestly zi could kiss this woman as she had recommended me to a number of lovely clients before, she didn't need to. I take it as a positive.

He seems like bit of a gossipy hoe detective showing off his knowledge about you and your circle. Not good...sounds a bit stalkery.

One of my pet hates about this job is those clients that consider themselves some kind of revered expert on the local prozzie scene 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️ really grinds my gears. I won't ban them just for that though, and in fairness these types often do try to be good clients because they understand a lot of the etiquette around seeing sex workers.

In your case I wouldn't worry, it definitely would make me feel exposed but just consider it a compliment 

I agree though it's best not to tell your real name to friends who also work in the sex industry. Even if you feel you can completely trust them, it's just awkward. A few times when I've done duo or group bookings with people I am close to outside of work, we have accidentally called each other by our real name in front of a client because we are so used to that. I don't think using work names all the time takes anything away from the friendship because at the end of the day our working personas are one (often big) part of who we are. It is important to embrace your working name I think. Just not all the time and not in all areas of your life.

When I first started out I was lucky to have a escort friend help me with recommending her clients they were lovely guys and very respectful used my escort name and didn't mention my real name  she helped me out alot
