Introducing and Spelling your name

Have you ever asked an English foreigner’s name and do not know how to write it?

If you have, the best thing you should do is to ask them to spell their name. “Spelling  name” means that you say each letter in your name instead of the full name. Of course, it will only be helpful if you know and remember the English alphabet.

Here is some instruction on how to ask a person to spell their name:

– “How do you spell your name?” 

– “Can you spell your name, please?” 

Answer:

– “My name is John, J-O-H-N”
