How to say what is your name in French?

I've just begun French 1 today, and I remember most of everything but how to ask for a name.


How do yo say my name is____, also? I think I've got it right, I just need to double check.


Danke Schoen. (german yay)

How to say what is your name in French?
I don't know about German, but in French to ask what someones name is, there are too ways of saying it, both meaning the same thing.





Comment tu t'appelles?- Both meaning what is your name?


Comment t'appelles-tu?





To say my name is in French: Je m'appelle...
Reply:What's your name:


FORMAL: Comment vous appellez- vous?


INFORMAL: Comment t'appelles- tu?





My name is:


Je m'appelle....





You can also use, "Je suis ____" but Je m'appelle is "my name is..."
Reply:My name is... = Je m'appelle...


What is your name? = Quel(le) est votre nom?


Or if you've already introduced yourself, just say, "Et toi?"
Reply:Je m'appelle Jenna, comment t'appelles tu? (spelling might be off, it's been awhile!)
Reply:Je m'appelle ....
