Common mistakes

“叫作” and “叫做” are both correct; the former is preferred in Mainland China while the latter is more common in Taiwan. Do not use 作 when meaning “to be called” as a standalone verb.

Formality

“叫作” is suitable for both spoken and written informal contexts, but in very formal writing consider “称为” or “名为”.
