Top 10 most Common Thai nicknames, and some weird ones

Friday June 28, 2013 by Mod 197 Comments

Sawatdee ka,

I got a question from one of my YouTube viewers asking what my nickname ‘Mod’ means, so I post this question on my Facebook page and received a few more questions regarding nicknames. A few people would like to know the most common Thai nicknames, so I searched for it and found “Top 10 most common Thai nicknames” surveyed by the The Ministry of Culture of Thailand.

1.เมย์ May /may/ : It is a girl’s nickname. I am sure every May was born in May.

2.พลอย Ploy/ploy/ : It is a girl’s nickname, meaning precious stone or gem.

Thai super star named ‘Ploy’

3.แนน Nan /naen/ : It is a girl’s nickname. This is not Thai language, these days Thai parents like to name their children with Western names.

4.ไอซ์ Ice /ái/ : It is both girl and boy’s name. It is a fashion nowadays that Thai parents choose an English word they think it sounds cool or cute to name their babies.

5.แบงค์ Bank : Boy’s name. Yep! It is another English word-that-sounds-cool-to-Thai-ears name.

6.น้ำ Nahm /náam/ means ‘water’. It’s a girl’s name.

7.ฟ้า Fah /fáa/ : Girl’s name meaning ‘sky’, ‘blue color’, or the short word for นางฟ้า /naang-fáa/ meaning ‘angel’

8.นิว New /niu/ : It is both girl and boy’s name. Another chosen English word.

9.บอล Ball /bon/ : boy’s name, as in round object you kick or throw or hit in a game

10.เบียร์ Beer /bia/ : Yes, it is ‘beer’ like in English meaning. Please don’t ask me why parents would want to name their children like this. Hopefully they are not alcoholic. 😛

I was laughing  when I read these names in the list because I know many people with those names. I think I know about 10 guys named บอล “Ball”.

Once in a while my friends and I discuss the topic ‘Why new- generation Thai parents have to name their babies with weird nicknames?’. The most strange nickname I ever heard of is สเตตัส ‘status’ , this is a name of my high school mate’s baby boy.  She did update a lot of Facebook statuses during her pregnancy.

Thai kids in my generation or my parent’s are named after cute and small animals like แมว Maew (cat), นก Nok (bird), ปู Poo (crab), ปลา Pla (fish), กวาง Kwang (deer) etc. Those names seem to be uninteresting in present day, so people came up with some cooler names like “แร็คคูน”(Raccoon) who has brothers named  “บีเวอร์” (Beaver) and  “ชิพมั้งค์” (Chipmunk)!!

 

Beaver

If you think those names are not weird enough, a famous Thai actor named his baby boy แอร์บัส (Airbus). He probably would like his son to be a pilot in the future:)

Air Bus: a leading aircraft manufacturer, with the most modern and comprehensive aircraft family.

 

There are still so many exotic Thai nicknames on my list that I have to write Part 2 and 3.  I would like you to share more exotic Thai nicknames you know:)

 

Nickname in Thai is ชื่อเล่น /chue (falling tone) – len (falling tone)/ ; ชื่อ/chue (falling tone)/ means ‘name’ , เล่น / len (falling tone)/ means ‘play’.

 

Fact: Every Thai person has a first name and a nickname aka chue len. Parents give their children a chue len, in addition to a formal given name.  80% of cases the chue len is a single syllable. Occasionally, the chue len is a shortened version of the first name, but more often it is completely unrelated. The first name is used only in formal situation, or outside personal life; for example when doing business transactions. In informal case chue len is commonly used and even introduced oneself to a new friend, and the other may not discover the person’s formal name 🙂

King Bhumibol Adulyadej’s nickname  is Ong Lek (องค์เล็ก); Ong is a numerative noun for kings, princes, princesses, priests, images of Buddha, gods, angels, palaces, pagodas; “Lek” means “little (one)”, a common name for younger siblings.

 

Do you know anyone named in the Top 10 list?

🙂

    Hi Mod, I lived in Thailand for 4 years but no longer have social media to ask my friends this question. Is the girl’s name Sanoh considered modern or old-fashioned? And is it a common name or quite rare? I have always wanted to give my daughter a Thai middle name as a tribute to how much I love the country

      Sawatdii ka Khun Afi,

      Muay (pronounced with middle tone) means “boxing”
      Muay (pronounced with rising tone) means “Chinese looking girl”, this is a common nickname for Thai girls who have Chinese linage.

    The five most common girls nicknames I seem to come across are Ploy, Puy (Pui), Dao (Daw), Fah and Tak.
    Tak is always subject for some amusement, when I tell the girl it means Thanks in Danish.

    Over the years i have randomly met some peculiar and rare names. I have met a guy named Katae, which is normally a girls nickname, but he liked carrots when he was a kid, so they called him Rabbit after Bugs Bunny. Some where named after brands. There have been a girl named Nest after Nestle chocolate, another guy named Ad after Adidas clothing. Etc.

    The top prize goes to a friend of my wife, her nickname is Maggi. In the beginning i thought she might have been named after Margaret Thatcher, who was called Maggie. She told me, that wasn’t the case. Apparently during the first few weeks after she was born, an uncle had given her an empty box of Maggi Bouillon Cubes and she was very interested in that box – maybe it smelled nice – but eventually Maggi was chosen as her nickname. And it gets even more strange. While at first, she will introduce herself as Maggi, but everyone close to her, family and old close friends etc will call her Ja, which is shortened from her real name Benjawan.

    And me? My wife just calls me ไวกิ้ง or บ้า (when she is joking with me)

      The word “Pang” in Thai can be written แพง /paeng/ which means “expensive” or แป้ง /bpâeng/ which means “powder”. Both words are commonly used as a female nickname.

      Thai nicknames are usually common names chosen by the parents, but some new generation parents like to make up an unusual nickname for example a person I know gave the nickname to her son “status” or “Boeing”.

    Do you think nicknames taken from gemstones, like ruby (Thabthim? Manee?), amber (Amphan), or sapphire (Phailin) are good? I’m thinking about naming triplets.

    Thank you again for this great article.

    Often Thai posts in FB that are translated contain the english word “cuddle”
    Is is used the same way as in english? Warm hug?
    I sense it is used to mean something different in Thai language…
    ‘Cuddle bhat” for example. Thanks for helping me.

Also people may not use their real name on Facebook, it might be difficult to find their account. I am sorry I can’t help you this time.

        Sawatdee ka, Mod. My mother is Thai, and my formal name is Sootreerat July (Khadakada) and my nickname is Ja’a (Peekaboo) as I got older, we never adapted my nickname to a more adult version. However, my question has to do with my first name. She had always translated it to mean “morning dew”, but a few years ago, at the Temple, the monk told my mother that I had a beautiful name meaning ‘beautiful woman’ I am curious as to whether there are regional transitions to it, or which is the best translation. I am sorry, I cannot read or write in Thai, so have no idea how to do so. I can tell you the pronunciation is more like -Soot Lee Lat with a pretty even (if clipped) cadence, when spoken.

          I am afraid I can’t find the meaning of a name when I don’t know how the name is spelled. I tried to spell your name different ways in Thai and look for the meaning on the internet, but I couldn’t find anything as I probably spell it incorrectly. There are many possible ways to spell one name. I am sorry I can’t be helpful this time.

    The reason for Thai nicknames is that a hundred years ago Thailand did not have surnames. Which was in fact a better system then today. The nickname fluke comes from the Thai actor fluke whose family is in the Fisheries business.

      Micky is already a good name and some Thai people also has this name as a nickname. There is no need to change but if you would like to have a Thai name I suggest that you could ask someone you know in Thailand who knows you well and they can give you a name with a good meaning that suits your personality. 🙂

          “การ์ตูน /gaa-dtuun/ is the English word “cartoon”, but we use it with Thai pronunciation. Some people think it sounds cute so they use it as a nickname. There are many more English words that are used as nickname for Thai people such as “donut”, “cookie”, “guitar” etc.

      Accordingly to your phonetic spelling in writing, it is difficult to tell what is the exact name. However, the name “เพ็ญ Pen” is a common name for Thai girls, it means ‘the moon’. It could be เปรม bprem which means ‘joyful’.

    I have a special affinity to Thailand and Thai people and I have been there twice on visits. As I have studied Samskrit, my favorite pastime is to decipher the Samskrit roots and meaning of Thai names. Much as I respect people choosing Western sounding nick names, I am afraid one is bound to lose their culture and language unless efforts are made to cultivate them. I have lived and worked in the US for over 30 years but I find people do learn names in alien languages and respect you for that.

    I notice that when you say ชื่อเล่น, you really need to be careful and use the falling tone while saying เล่น, otherwise thai people will think “len” is part of your name! – It happened to me more than once 😀

      His name is หมูปิ้ง; Moo (หมู) means ‘pork’, bping (ป้ิง) means ‘grill’ ; it means “grilled pork”. He sounds yummy 555

    My wife, who is a Thai around kru Mod’s age, is nicknamed Ice, although that was a nickname she picked up from her aunt after she moved to the U.S. Her original chue len was Baby.

    Why thai parrents are giving nicknames at all? Why not just call your son/daughter by their real name?

      Because the real Thai names usually have at least two or three syllables, and sounds formal. Real names are used outside your personal life i.e. the teachers address students at school, when going to the hospital. Somewhat the real Thai names are used like family names are used in some Western cultures.

    My Thai nickname is Pla. I was given that because Simon, my English name sounds like Salmon to Thai people. A friend ( also called Simon) who smokes was nicknamed Smoked.
    I know a girl who was names Sai ( Sand) by her father. She didn’t like that as it is beneath the feet so she changed her nickname to Mind.

    It’s funny how in English Raccoon would translate in Thai to “Love You”. I love languages. So interesting

      Rak Khun .. Love You … pronounced almost as as Raccoon; so it’s not a translation … 555 (hahaha … 5 is pronounced as ha, ergo 555 means hahaha). I guess you can see the trend.

    My favorite nickname using a Thai word is ‘Tangkwah’ which means ‘cucumber’. Tangkwaa just sounds so cool!!! And we do use the English phase ‘cool as a cucumber’.

    I’m from Malaysia and I have a few Thai acquaintances that I met through my line of work, but I don’t know any of them well enough to be on a nickname basis with them. I refer to them as ‘Khun [first name]’. But my cousin, who is a girl, was given the nickname ‘Porntheep’ by a Thai Buddhist monk when she was a child. Does the name Porntheep mean anything?
