In most cases using a first name is not doxxing (unless you have been given a very unique one) and some people are okay with their name being used. But if that name is or has been deliberately used along with other snippets of personal information I'd say someone has a right to call it doxxing.
When I joined IMDb people were a lot more open (you can also say we were naive) and a few even had their real name as their user name. So when the AI behind IMDb created a user name from my email address I wasn't bothered. Even after changing it to more anonymous names I was still open about who I was but people should still address me by my user name (or an old user name they preferred).
The first person to continuously use my real name on the boards was definitely not doing so in a friendly manner and it has been that way ever since. You get used to it and even when Steve did it here (before I turned up) I saw it as just part of the same old crap I've been living with since 2010. He'd come across as friendly but we both know he'd been insulting, threatening and slandering me, probably thinking it was okay because he'd seen other people doing the same thing.
So when he posted that thread about using people's real names and telling lies about them I replied with "So don't do it then" or something like that.
Things snowballed after that.

People are also responsible for their actions when it comes to using that information. If I see someone being careless with their money and drop it I'm still being a thief if I pick it up and keep it.

I don't think I ever told anyone to not use my name as that would have been a waste of time. But information has been given out after certain people searched for it on the internet.

I think it takes more than a first name to really dox someone. However, it is disrespectful to use someone first name when they have told you that they don’t want you to use their first name. Or you are at odds with this person, but you think you can use their first name. It’s passive aggressive. You can pretend all you want that the other person is overacting, and even crazy for being upset that you use their first name. You can pretend all you want that you didn’t know any better and you were completely innnocent. But, come on… it’s basic internet etiquette. When someone discloses their personal information to you, such as their first name… you know not to share it with others, unless given permission to do so. Also, it’s basic etiquette, when you have a falling out with someone that you aren’t allowed to use that personal information anymore. And when you do use this information, you’re essentially using it against them, even though the information itself is not negative.
It’s creepy how manipulative people can be over the Internet. How they can spin things to make it seem like it’s you’re fault or you’re the crazy one.

If you want to spam the boards with your stupid crap, that's what happens. Lol.
That's not drama, it's just a fact of message board life.
