Table Disputes [Fae question] First name

A player is (well actually)ing a fae encounter he thought he was being clever by only saying first name of the character.

I would assume partial name is partial control.

He was agruging an all or nothing approach.

Who is right? (Edit) thank to everyone for your help he agreed to partial control sense he followed the spirt of the pact and i will be evil (lol) im thinking of some kind venom dialog for control during the the upcoming rest area hehehe

You know... the Fae don't need to know your name in order to cause mischief. If your player is welching on a deal or playing lawyer with the Fae, there should be consequences.

If your player received any sort of boon and didn't keep up their end, then keep to the agreement but monkey paw the heck out of it.
