When we we meet someone. First thing comes to our mind is.. Wanted to know their name….

• Wie heißen Sie?
“What’s your name?”
or
How you called?

The verb heißen, meaning “to be called.” the pronoun here is Sie which denotes formal way, also informal pronoun is du. both Sie & du represent “You”. In general, younger people and people commenting online use du with one another, while one would use Sie with older people and in very formal situations(official purpose).
