I call all my lectureres by thier first names because everyone else seems to as well... some I am not really sure what they like to be called so I go for the good old 'excuse me'

I call them by first names. Been used to that from senior HS.

Techically if they have a higher rank than you (ie. Dr or Professor) then you should refer to them by their title. If they are Mr or Ms etc. then you can call them by first name. Most uni staff don't seem to care though.

First name basis. Cept i can't call one lecturer Dave, it has to be David. Whilst the academic supervising my research project is named Micheal and doesn't mind being called Mike. Lecturers don't really mind if you call them by their first name, guess the assume everyone is an adult. Give them nicknames and call them that to their face :) We call our lab supervisor the Big D, he loves it. Too bad he doesnt mark any of my exams.
