is not considered cliché.

A: Do you know Jimmy
Matthews?
B: His name rings a
bell.
I can't remember Mark Smith, but his name rings a bell.
It doesn't have to be about people. It can be about things as well.
A: Have you heard the
song "Love is Battlefield"?
B: The title rings a
bell. How does it go?
