معنی
A basic question to ask someone's name.
زمینه فرهنگی
Thais often use nicknames (Chue-len) which are usually one or two syllables long and can be anything from 'Pig' (Moo) to 'Bank' or 'Apple'. Don't be surprised if someone gives you a nickname instead of a formal name. In business, it is common to use 'Khun' followed by the first name, never the surname. Surnames are very formal and rarely used in speech. Younger generations might use 'ชื่อไรอะ' (Chue rai a) on social media, which is a very clipped, informal version of the phrase. If you know someone is older, you might use 'Pee' (older sibling) instead of 'Khun' to sound warmer and more 'Thai'.
Smile while asking
Thai is a tonal language, but facial expressions help convey the 'politeness' that the particles intend.
Don't forget the particle
Saying 'Khun chue arai' without 'krap' or 'ka' can sound like you are angry or demanding.

Use 'Khun' + Name
Once they tell you their name (e.g., 'Beer'), address them as 'Khun Beer' to stay polite.
Nicknames are normal
If they say their name is 'Bank' or 'Golf', don't laugh! These are very common Thai nicknames.
