In "The Silence of the Lambs", "Hannibal", and "Red Dragon" almost every character that I remember addresses Hannibal Lecter as "Dr. Lecter", even after he was imprisoned for being a serial killer. Wasn't his medical license revoked? Did they keep calling him "Dr." as a sign of respect? I find a bit odd that this aspect wasn't take into consideration...

Your license doesn’t have to have anything to do with your education title, which is what a doctor is. Revoking a license to practice doesn’t revoke your title.

It's a matter of respect
Even if his medical licence to practice has been revoked he is still a qualified doctor having earned a medical degree and so is entitled to be called "Doctor".
However, it's also a matter of maintaining equilibrium with him on a daily basis. Respect
and proper manners are highly important to Lector and treating him with disrespect (or indeed to people he likes) or bad manners is likely to make him very difficult to deal with.
When Clarice is disrespected by Miggs in the prison Lector tells here...
"Discourtesy is unspeakably ugly to me."
and essentially talks Miggs into suicide.

In TSOTL and RD especially, the FBI needs Lecter to solve cases, so there is greater incentive to show him the respect he wishes to receive, but I also entirely agree that many generally come to respect him, despite how dangerous he actually is, hence Clarice's interactions and approach in "Hannibal"...
