Is this grammatically correct? What does it mean and can it be rephrased? “If I had messaged you first, I would address you as Francis because that’s the name displayed on your profile. If I address you with that and it’s not your name, you simply say “oh

The original sentence is mostly grammatically correct, but it could be clearer and more concise. Here’s a breakdown of meaning and a potential rephrasing: **Meaning:** The speaker is discussing a hypothetical situation in which they might have contacted someone first. They express that if they had done so, they would have called the person "Francis," because that’s the name shown on the person's profile. Additionally, they mention that if they called that person "Francis" and it wasn’t actually their name, the person should simply correct them by saying that the name isn’t theirs or that they are using someone else’s profile. **Rephrased:** "If I had messaged you first, I would have called you Francis, since that's the name on your profile. If I use that name and it turns out to be incorrect, you could just say, 'Oh, that’s not my name,' or 'I'm using someone else’s profile.'" This version maintains the original intent while improving clarity and flow.
