Actually, I think Voldemort calls Peter,
Wormtail because it hurts Peter.  It reminds
him of who he once was, before he betrayed
James and Lily and thus destroyed everyone
who cared about him for 7+ years.

Once Voldemort discovered how much the name
hurt Peter after the events of Godric's
Hollow, I'm sure he used it quite frequently,
just to watch it get under Peter's skin,
though the way he says it also indicates he
used it before, which would make sense if he
was hiding Peter as a spy.

Only those who went to school, and paid
attention would know who "Wormtail" was, but
calling someone Pettigrew or Peter when
referring to James and Lily and the idea of
going after them...it's rather easy to figure
out who you're talking about.
