About Say My Name
Formally created by Vux of Dragonblight-[US] & CKlausi of Biny of Anetheron-[EU], the project has now been taken on by Bubblesz of Echo Isles-[US]. Say My Name is a very simple addon that will alert you by playing the Auction House "bell" sound and relaying the message to the middle of your screen when:
- Someone says your name in *any* chat channel.
- Someone does an emote that contains your name or the word "you".
- Someone drops a Fish Feast or a Great Feast.
Features
Besides the point of playing the auction house bell, this add on can also do:
- All messages are printed to ChatFrame7 for a "log" in case you want to view them later, for example if you were afk.
- Supports nicknames (or any other custom trigger)
- Ignore feature.
Commands
The commands are being updated to be more 'ease' of use.
As of this very moment, you can use /saymyname to learn more.

Comments
I also agree that the ability to ignore certain channels would be a great addition.
1) Go to your addons folder (should be wow/interface/addons)
2) Open the file "SayMyName.lua" in any text editor (e.g. Notepad or Wordpad)
3) Scroll down to line 32. It should say
if ( event == "ADDON_LOADED" and arg1 == "SayMyName" ) then
4) Select that line and the following 8 lines (lines 32 to 40). The last line should say end
5) Delete them
6) Add the following lines (they're similar but not the same)
if ( event == "ADDON_LOADED") then
if ( arg1 == "SayMyName" ) then
if ( not namesTable ) then
ChatFrame1:AddMessage("SayMyName First Run")
namesTable = { UnitName("player") }
end
if ( not ignoredPlayers ) then
ignoredPlayers = { }
end
else
return false
end
end
Maybe when I get some time I'll pick this up and add some features (such as the Mage table, Soulstone, etc... idea that someone had below). Until then just try to apply this fix and let me know if you have any other issues.
I am, however, hoping for an update soon to hopefully fix the errors.
Thanks for the hard work!

BTW, thanks for the nicknames!
I'd also suggest a spam protector to keep people from abusing the addon. Some people can be... mean. Perhaps any message repeated more than two times is ignored by the addon.
