Phoned; named (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

called

I believe this is a double definition.

'phoned' is the first definition.
('call' can be a synonym of 'phone')

'named' is the second definition.
('call' can be a synonym of 'name')

(Other definitions for called that I've seen before include "Having a specified name" , "Named" , "Assigned a name to" , "Summoned or phoned" , "Came to visit" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
