      I would like to add to this. I spend at least 20 hours a week in forests, and have heard a lot of things. Never my name.

    If this isn’t an SCP, it definitely should be. That being said I’ve never experienced this and I spent an awful lot of time wandering in the wildernesses in Monterey.

      If you hear your name called while collecting samples in [redacted] Forest, ND, DO NOT respond. Calmly walk back to your vehicle and radio for support. An extraction team will be at your location shortly to remove you from the gaze of [redacted].

    This reminds me of Black & White, the god simulation game from, idk, the early 2000s. They had a list of common names and if your save profile matched one, a creepy voice would call you from time to time.

    I know I heard my name called occasionally as a kid. Clear as day but directionless, seemingly from very close to me. I figured its just a bug in a developing mind. But could also be that my mom got damn angry if I didnt hear her calling so I was always listening for it, and like the article describe, I picked up noise and the brain filled in the expectation.
