The term ''given name'' refers to a name usually bestowed at or close to the time of birth, usually by the parents of the newborn.

In more formal situations, a person's surname is more commonly used. In Western culture, the idioms "" and "being on first-name terms" refer to the familiarity inherent in addressing someone by their given name.
