While I love all the fun reflection answers, there's a much simpler and faster way to invoke client hub methods using a string as the method Name.

Clients.All, Clients.Others, Clients.Caller, Clients.AllExcept(connectionIds), Clients.Group(groupName), Clients.OthersInGrouop(groupName), and Clients.Client(connectionId) are all dynamic objects, but they also all implement the IClientProxy interface.

You can cast any of these dynamic objects to an IClientProxy, and then call Invoke(methodName, args...):

public void AcceptSignal(string methodToCall, string msg)
{

    IClientProxy proxy = Clients.All;
    proxy.Invoke(methodToCall, msg);
}
