T-Mobile Jingle for non-contacts, an old phone ringtone for contacts (not the Apple version).
I got an HTC Touch Pro in 2009 and several sound packs for it. I spent a lot of time setting things to what I liked and I've brought all those tones/sounds to every phone I've owned since. I'm still waking up to the alarm sound I've had since 2009.
I’ve not used a ringtone for at least 10 years! Silent switch on and vibrate on is enough for me.
With the exception of places I need my phone to be quiet, I prefer the ringer on. I just ignore what I don't want to respond to.
OTOH, I have a BLOCKED CALLER contact with a silent ringtone. But with Apple's call blocking I haven't had to add much to that contact in a while.
Too many to name them all. I have different ringtones (and sometimes a separate text tone) for the most important people. That is 7 siblings/in-laws , spouse, 2 kids, boss, school district, and other staff member in my dept. Plus another tone (Where the Blacktop Ends) for anyone else. My generic one will change when I get bored.
Heck, even my alarm tones are coded. I don’t need to see a clock to know which tone means the dog needs meds, when the kids need meds, or when it is time for me to wake the kids in the morning.

When iTunes was still the portal, I switched among song snippets. However, I stopped caring, especially because the first few macOS/iOS versions after dropping iTunes made managing such media a pain/impossible.
Nonetheless, speaking of classics, I have kept a few around:

You need to audition for Jeopardy with that memory. 😆 I only have a couple of specially designated text tones and that required some training time.
I have over 100 ringtones saved to my laptop that I change every so often on my iPhone. I even have the same ringtones and tones set up for my iPads as well. The only time my ringer is on silent or vibrate is when I’m on the phone at work since I talk to either listen to music while working. Other than that the ringer is on, and default ringtone changes every 2 weeks, while my job, family and friends all have certain ringtones and tones for text messages. Even my different email accounts have a certain tone for when new messages come in.
LOL, I use a recording from the movie Austin powers the spy who shagged me. It’s the scene where Fat B@stard walks out and says, “First things first, where’s your sh!tter? I’ve got a turtle head poking out”! Many years ago I had a friend pull the audio from the dvd using Final Cut Pro and converted it to a M4r format (ringtone) and I’ve had it ever since. I use several other custom ringtones as well. The app Garage band can be used to create ringtones from your music library and other audio. Instructions are found online.
Silent mode is good for the office environment, but it’s boring.

Same for me 😉 I have'nt used an ringtone for ages .
Marimba or Xylophone whene. But most of the time my phone is on silent and I only get the vibration on the watch because that's on silent as well.
I have an offensive one from South Park for my wife when she rings. I cant repeat it but you might be able to guess from the photo lol
For years (probably since there are custom ringtones on the iPhone) I have The Blood of Cuchulainn (Theme from Boondock Saints).
I recently tried to create a ringtone from another song but could not get it done with Ventura since it was impossible to download the bought version from the iTunes store while having an active Apple Music membership. The version downloaded from Apple Music cannot be used to create a ringtone (at least not using Music or GarageBand).

Phone is mostly on silent but here’s my tiny lineup. Moonlight Sonata definitely sees the most use but Lost City is a close second (it’s from the end of the first disc of FF7 for those who know).
Nokia "Jumping" as main ringtone. The old Virgin Mobile "Anthem" for the visually impaired group with whom I volunteer. "Dragnet Theme" for the mother in law and my kids. "Pac Man" startup for the grandkids and the "Jetsons" doorbell for my much better half.
Oh, forgot the Imperial March for my employer's ringtone.
Reflection - my phone's on vibrate 99% of the time, so it doesn't matter. When it rings, it's on my Mac. When I'm not home, I feel it vibrating in my pocket.
