What is the best sentence to introduce yourself?
In informal situations, we usually introduce ourselves with the phrase:
- My name’s [First Name].
In formal situations, we also give our last name:
- My name’s [First Name + Last Name].
We also use the phrase I’m…, particularly if there is a reason that the person might already know who we are, e.g.:
- Hi, I’m Maria! Thanks for coming. [Maria is the host of a party and is introducing herself to a party guest who she doesn’t know]
- Hello, I’m Leanardo Sanchez, the new marketing assistant. [Leanardo is a new employee and is introducing himself to one of his new colleagues]
After you’ve given your name, you can say “Pleased to meet you.”
These phrases can also be used to introduce yourself in an email.
