Ever get in trouble for it with someone who doesn’t know it’s your signature, baybeeeee

Nope. It may be because of the tone. I don't do an Austin Powers thing. I say it the same way I'd say buddy or friend.

Thinking harder about it, generally if I'm meeting someone for the first time I use their name because I'm trying to get the hamster that runs the wheel in my brain to put their name somewhere I'll remember it. By the time we've interacted a while it's very likely they've seen me say it to half a dozen of my friends.
