"Charge" her name by calling it and giving her a high-value treat such as pieces of hot dogs or chicken when she comes. She will very soon quite ignoring the name when called. Anytime in the future she seems to be lapsing into ignoring it, "recharge" with a recall/treating session with a treat so good and juicy she can't ignore the smell. She will very soon associate that name with automatically running to you and forget all about the treat over time. It will become totally reflexive.
