Hello
I have code:

void main()
{
  char *foo = "CALL "My_Proc"(?)";
  EXEC SQL char *stmt = foo;
  EXEC SQL PREPARE prep_stmt FROM :stmt;

  EXEC SQL char *stmt2 = "CALL \x22OMy_Proc\x22(?)";
  EXEC SQL PREPARE prep_stmt2 FROM :stmt2;

  EXEC SQL PREPARE prep_stmt3 FROM "CALL "My_Proc"(?)";
}

ecpg --version
ecpg (PostgreSQL) 13.0 (Ubuntu 13.0-1.pgdg20.04+1)

ecpg sample.pgc -o sample.c
sample.pgc:10: ERROR: syntax error at or near "My_Proc"

General usage questions regarding PostgreSQL and ECPG should be sent to the -general list.

I don't know the correct answer here but maybe using dollar quoting within the PostgreSQL SQL statement instead of double-quotes will help.  Something like:

prepare prep_stat3 from "call $$My_Proc$$()";

Asking an actual question does help others to figure out where you are confused instead of just guessing.
