How do you say name is in Chinese?

There are two ways to say "my name is" in Chinese, depending on the context and formality:

Formal:

* 我叫… (wǒ jiào...) - This is the most common and formal way to introduce yourself. It literally translates to "I am called...".

* 我的名字是… (wǒ de míngzi shì...) - This is a slightly more formal and literary way to say "my name is...".

Informal:

* 我叫… (wǒ jiào...) - This is also used in informal settings.

Example:

* 我叫李明。 (Wǒ jiào Lǐ Míng.) - My name is Li Ming.

* 我的名字是张丽。 (Wǒ de míngzi shì Zhāng Lì.) - My name is Zhang Li.

Note: The word "name" (名字, míngzi) is often omitted when introducing yourself in Chinese.
