How does a priest address another priest?

In: Catholicism [Edit categories]

Answer:

The same as anyone else, Father. if however they know each other, like anyone in similar professions, by name.

It is considered good form among priests to address each other by the title "Father" if in public, and by name only if they are not among the faithful. Now a days, priests are so familiar many disregard the title Father and allow all to call them by their first name if not a short form or nickname.
