FAQ: How do you say Duyen?

My father and mother named me: “Duyên,” defined in Vietnamese as:

1. predestined affinity
2. charm, grace

(See it used in context).

You may hear my name said differently depending on whether someone is from the northern or southern parts of Vietnam.

I’m sure you’ve heard my name spoken in many different ways; Due when, Yen, D, Duyên, Zuyen, Du-yen, Duyan, the list goes on. You might’ve already encounter another Duyen in your life who goes by something completely different.

Du.yin Fawn Tron

I personally pronounce my name in English as Doyin Fawn Tron.
