Hùng's note about Vietnamese names
In (South-)Eastern Asian countries like Japan, Korean, Vietnam... the last name/surname/family name comes first. However, in Vietnam, people never call someone by their surname, even in formal situations, because, for instance, "Nguyễn" is the surname for over 40% of Vietnamese people! (Why?) So, you should just call me "Hùng" or, in formal situations, "Mr. Hùng" :)
However, in order not to confuse the foreigners, some people write their names reversely and/or use English/Latin nicknames. For ex, I used to write my names as "Hùng Nguyễn", "Williams Nguyễn" or "Williams Hùng Nguyễn"... The Western order is also common for overseas Vietnamese.
Quick Tips:
- If there is an English/Latin word in someone's full name, call him/her by that name. ("Jasper")
- If you see someone's full name which has only 2 words ("Minh Nguyễn"), then for 90% of the cases, the first word ("Minh") is the first name.
- If a word is written in UPPERCASE, it will likely be the surname.
- More about Vietnamese name with a list of common surnames
