I would probably be a bit offended and think you were making fun of my accent if you copied me.

I’d be happy they made the effort to try.
A name is just the noise another person makes to get your attention or address you. If they make the wrong noise - it’s not gonna work as well.

They can try…by saying my name.
You don’t need to copy my Australian accent to say my name.
