My name is a common word in English and I hear it all the time. Maybe some of them are hallucinations, I have no idea.
Slight tangent: are you “the” Tycho?

There's a Justin Timberlake song which contains a subtle sound that sounds exactly like my mom calling me from downstairs, but in a way I can't quite tell whether it's true or imagined.
Decades later I know it is just part of the song, but hearing it still leaves me stopped in my tracks wondering whether I was just called.

Yep, I have the same thing in a song. Every time I hear it, I think it's a specific person calling for me.

Yes, I have had it happen very clearly a few times. It’s always my father’s voice. I’ve also heard a snare drum once and a shopping cart crash once; both were so clear, and so clearly hallucinations, that they’ve stuck with me for decades.

My mother calls for me every time during the guitar solo of Guns N' Roses' Sweet Child O' Mine.
Reminds me of my childhood memories playing video games in the basement, and always makes me smile. Love that song :)

I have auditory hallucinations. I need silence with earplugs and noise cancelling headphones. I can have subvocal thoughts back and forth with the voices. Sometimes they say my name. Usually it's to get my attention.

For a few years, I would hear my mom call my name the second before I drifted off to sleep.
Like you can just about tell it's in your head and not a real sound, but at the same time, it seemed to come out of nowhere, not from a stream of related thoughts.
I can't recall it happening anytime recently but more when I was younger.
