The Vietnamese language is tonal, and so are Vietnamese names. Names with the same spelling but with different tones are different names. Vietnamese personal names generally consist of three parts: one family name, one or more middle names, and one given name, used in that order. Persons can be referred to by either the full name, the given name, or a hierarchic pronoun in normal usage.
