Mentioned
by Kirdow
Mentioned sends a chat notice when a message contains a name or phrase the player has set up as a trigger, using a configurable filter list.
What it does
Players set up chat filters so that a matching message in chat produces a notification, which lets a player know when their name or a chosen word appears. Styling for the alert and sounds can be changed, and some anti-spam measures limit repeated alerts. The settings live in a config menu opened with the K key from the mod list, which can be reached in-game; the menu appears only on Forge, and config changes can also be made by editing the file directly.
The mod draws its design from an earlier Ping mod and was rebuilt from the ground up by its author, who published versions for Fabric and Forge. Its source code is on GitHub and can be reached from the Source button on the project page. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 14 release versions, 1.18.2 – 1.21.5, under the MIT License, and the project is open source.

A message that matches a configured filter triggers a visible notification, so a player can spot mentions in busy chat.

The look of the notice and the sound played with it can be changed in the settings.
Anti-spam measures
Built-in limits reduce repeated alerts from the same chat activity.
In-game config menu
