I can walk around all day and not encounter a voice of someone who sounds like someone else I know, yet if I was facing away from someone I knew and heard their voice, I’d likely turn around at the sound of it. There are times where I’ll see faces and think they look like someone I know, but I don’t think I’ve ever thought to myself or commented to someone that they sound like someone I know. I don’t think I’ve ever heard someone who’s voice sounds like a celebrity that I’d recognize, unless they’re doing an intentional impression.
Does the brain not seek out similar voices in the same way it may faces? Is the brain able to identify people that distinctly that it can remember their exact voice pattern and discern it from others?

There’s just so many variables. A person’s height, size of their chest, their lungs, their vocal chords not to mention accents and dialect which can change the timbre or manner in which one speaks. Voices aren’t completely unique of course but the chances of meeting someone with the same voice as you is pretty ridiculous based on the amount of variables. It’s more likely to be someone in your family or from your area than just a random you meet somewhere
