뜻
An informal question to ask someone's name.
문화적 배경
The 'tu' vs 'vous' distinction is strictly observed. Using 'ton nom' with a stranger over 30 is often seen as a lack of education. Quebecers use 'tu' much more readily. It is common to hear 'Quel est ton nom ?' in shops or between people who have just met. Names are deeply tied to family 'griots' (storytellers). Asking a name might be followed by asking for the 'nom de famille' to place the person in a social lineage. In the French 'gaming' community, 'ton nom' is often replaced by 'ton pseudo' (your handle).
The 'Toi' Add-on
After they answer, they will likely ask 'Et toi ?' (And you?). Be ready to say 'Moi, c'est [Name]'.
The Surname Trap
If you are in a formal setting, 'nom' means 'last name'. If you need the first name, ask for the 'prénom'.

Smile First
In France, a smile and a 'Bonjour' are required before asking 'Quel est ton nom ?'. Going straight to the question is considered aggressive.
