Thread: me again

It is the name of my son in the orphanage (it is the way they wrote it on his medical papers, which were written in english). I don't know how it is written in Russian, but would like to know that also. Thanks, Natalie

chto zavhoot?


ps- I am actually going to try writing things in Russian, I'm not going to get any better if I never do, so please, anyone, feel free to correct me! I tried to say "what's the name" here...

Как его зовут?

I believe его is needed. Without it I think you're asking literaly "How called?" It's like asking "Whats name?" I may be wrong so feel free to correct me.

[edit] I just saw the part about you're trying to say "What's the name", not "What's his name". That still means it should be "Как зовут", not "Что зовут".
