意味
Asking for someone's name in a formal way.
文化的背景
When someone gives their name, they will often include 'Singh' or 'Kaur'. It is polite to acknowledge the full name. People might ask for your father's name or village name immediately after your name to establish a connection. In cities like Chandigarh, young people might use English 'What is your name?' or a mix, but 'Tuhada' remains the standard for respect. In the UK or Canada, second-generation Punjabis might use this phrase to reconnect with their roots, often emphasizing the 'H' in 'Tuhada' more clearly than native speakers.
The 'Ji' Factor
Always add 'Ji' at the end if you want to sound like a native pro. 'Tuhada naam ki hai ji?'
Avoid 'Tu'
Never use 'Tera' with someone you want to impress or show respect to. It can sound aggressive.

Wait for the Greeting
In Punjab, it's better to say 'Sat Sri Akal' first and wait for a response before asking the name.
Gender Neutrality
The phrase itself is gender-neutral. You use the same words for men and women.

よくある質問
10 問No, in Punjabi, the plural 'Tuhada' is used for a single person to show respect (formal 'you').
Yes, but it's very informal and might sound like an interrogation. Better to use the full phrase.
That is their middle name/title. You can address them by their first name or full name.
Say 'Mera naam [Name] hai.'
It's never 'too much' to be polite, but it might sound a bit old-fashioned to younger people.
'Ki' means 'what'. 'Kihda' means 'whose'. Don't mix them up!
No, 'hai' stays the same regardless of the person's gender.
Very similar. In Hindi, it's 'Aapka naam kya hai?'. The structure is identical.
Yes, it's perfectly fine for texting.
Grammatical gender is often arbitrary; in Punjabi, 'Naam' just happens to be masculine.
