I think that in my family, we got overkilled in showing respect to the older sibling. My sister is only fifteen months older than me and I call her Baji. My brother is 18 months younger than me and calls me bhaijaan. In contrast, my younger daughter who is 3 years younger than my older daughter calls her by name. Same in my sister’s family where all three daughters call each other by name, though there is a 10 years difference between the oldest and the youngest.

yeah when the age differences are so little, like a year or just slightly more, then it becomes overkill with the baji and bhaijan stuff… I can understand that.
but I’m staunch about it if there is 2 or 3 years of a difference…
