Another useless thread!
Mine
English: Hi, my name is Carl.
Swedish: Hej, jag heter Carl.
French: Bonjour, j’mapelle Carl.
Hungarian: Szia, A navam Carl.
Thai: Sawatdi, chau cheu Carl.
German: Guten tag, ich haisen Carl
Catalonian: Hola, meu nom este el Carl (hope I got that right!).
And the Swedish “Sjörövarspråket”… if you count that as a language:
Hohejoj, jojagog hohetoteror Carl.

Ok thanks, and I think I got the Thai one wrong too… must have mixed it up with something.
Well, In spoken form most people say “j’mappelle”.
Spanish : Hola, me llamo Alex.

G’day, my name’s Darryl. (Australian)
My name isn’t Darryl of course but if I was Australian there’s a fair chance it would be.

According to Monty Python, yes. ;D
But from experience I found that Darryl or Brett are far more common.
