It's called " Alzheimer's disease, " and in an advanced case you can call someone's name all you like, there will be no response. Responding to a name shows that memory is functioning... as seen from here, it doesn't necessarily indicate anything more than that. It doesn't require the sense of an " I " or a " me " when a response occurs. In fact, a sense of " I " or " me " might actually interfere. Picture this: " Wrapped up in my thoughts, " walking down the street. Someone calls out the name " Tim " -- but " lost in my thoughts, " nobody responds.
