It's a pattern recognition phenomenon. Humans recognize things by their pattern. Your brain will immediately try to to fit anything you see or hear into a pattern. That's why people see shapes and pictures in clouds. It why some people swear up and down that there are hidden messages in some songs.
You're alone. You hear a sound. You try to fit it into a pattern. Your name is a pattern well known to you. You make the sound fit the pattern of your name.
It would be more rare to see how many people have never heard their name when alone.
