Hoe many Joes, Tims and Donalds do you know, and how many Kamalas? In the USA, it's a name that stands out. I'm sure you intend to imply that it's patronizing in some way, but there are oerfectly legitimate reasons to call her by her first name and you're not doing yourself any favors by just assuming that none of them apply here.

I’m glad you understand what I’m implying.

It's not like you were subtle about it. But being understandable doesn't make it right. "Chickens build laser boxes" is also perfectly understandable.
