It’s not necessarily a bad sign if your boyfriend refers to you as an ex-girlfriend’s name; it could be a good sign, indicating that he feels closer to you.
The reason he makes the error is that he has always valued his previous relationship the most. Perhaps he is prepared to commit to you now.
If you are sure that he is calling you by his ex’s name out of habit and not by any malice, try to be patient with him.
It might take time for him to correct himself, especially if he is not aware of the fact that he is doing it.
