"What is my name?" is an English equivalent of the French question Comment je m'appelle?

Specifically, the interrogative comment means "how." The personal pronoun je means "I." The reflexive me* means "myself." The verb appelle means "(I) am called" in this context.

The pronunciation will be "kuh-maw zhuh mah-pehl" in French.

*The vowel e drops -- and is replaced by an apostrophe -- before a verb which begins which a vowel.

Je m'appelle ... " means "My name is ...".

But in fact, the literal translation of "Je m'appelle ... " is "I call myself ... ", but it's just the French construction of saying your name

"What is your name?" is an English equivalent of the French phrase Comment tu t'appelles? The question represents a colloquial, friendly, informal way of asking Comment t'appelles-tu? and translates literally as "How do you call yourself?" or "How do you name yourself?" in English. The pronunciation will be "kuh-maw tyoo ta-pel" in French.
