뜻
Asking for someone's name.
문화적 배경
It is common to add 'Bhai' or 'Ben' to a name. If someone says their name is 'Raj', you should call them 'Rajbhai'. In business, people often exchange business cards (visiting cards) immediately after asking this question. In villages, people might ask 'તમે કોના છો?' (Whose are you?) after asking your name to find out your family background. Younger generations might use 'Tamaru' less strictly, but it is still highly appreciated by elders in the community.
The 'Bhai/Ben' Rule
When they tell you their name, repeat it back with 'Bhai' (for men) or 'Ben' (for women) to instantly sound like a pro.
Avoid 'Tu'
Never use 'Taru naam shu che?' with anyone older than you, even by a few years.

Smile!
Gujaratis are very friendly. A smile while asking this question goes a long way.
Nasalization
Don't forget the tiny dot (bindu) over 'u' in 'Tamaru' and 'Shu'. It's a soft nasal sound.

자주 묻는 질문
10 질문Yes, in very casual settings, dropping 'shu che' is common, but 'Tamaru naam shu che?' is better for learners.
Yes, 'Shu' is the standard word for 'What' in Gujarati.
Always default to 'Tamaru'. It is never rude to be too polite.
Say 'Maru naam [Your Name] che'.
Because 'Naam' is a neuter noun. 'Tamaro' is for masculine nouns.
In some dialects (like Surati), 'Shu' is pronounced as 'Su'. Both are understood.
No, for objects you would ask 'Aa shu che?' (What is this?).
Usually 'Naam' refers to the first name. 'Atak' is the word for surname.
In formal writing, yes. In speaking, it's sometimes dropped, but keep it for now.
'Aapnu' is an even more formal version of 'Tamaru', used for high-status individuals.
