Answer

Its more common to hear "that guy/those guys". Saying "that fellow" sounds more proper and formal, so you won't hear it as much. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe "that fellow" is said more in British English (I'm from america), so it may be regional.

Answer

I call family members  and colleagues by their names. If I wanted to say something to a group of strangers,  I would say something like: Hey guys, do you mind if we sit here?
At school if a group of  male students are misbehaving I would say: Hey guys, settle down!"
