No, the word 'called' is the past participle, past tense of the verb to call.

The past participle of the verb is also an adjective.

EXAMPLES

  • verb: We've called for a taxi.
  • adjective: The called members are marked with a check.

A noun is a word for a person, a place, or a thing.

The word 'call' is a noun as a word for a sound or a cry made as a summons or to attract someone's attention; the sound of an animal or bird; telephone communication or connection; a short visit; an appeal or demand for something to happen or be done; a decision or ruling made by an umpire or other official; a word for a thing.

The noun forms for the verb to call are caller and the gerund, calling.

A "noun" is a part of speech used to name people, places, objects, or ideas. It serves as the subject of a sentence or the object that receives the action of a verb.
