You
🇩🇪 [du] is the normal choice for flirting or chatting casually at a bar. Using [Sie] here would usually sound unusually distant unless you're clearly keeping things formal.

What is your name?
💬 German uses [heißen] for asking someone's name: literally [How are you called?], but naturally it means [What is your name?]. You can swap the person easily: [Wie heißen Sie?] for formal [What is your name?].

Heiße

Am called
💬 With [ich], the verb changes to [heiße]. Compare [du heißt] and [ich heiße] — the ending shifts with the person.

💬 German often says [Ich heiße …] to give a name, where English prefers [My name is …]. Another very common option is [Ich bin Anna], especially in casual introductions.
