In the entire world, ฝรั่ง (Franc 
, Frang 
, Farang 
) is a common principally boy's, but very infrequently feminine given name. The given name ฝรั่ง is characteristic of Slovenia, where it is a common male name, Albania, where it is quite a common male name, and Cameroon, where it is quite a common predominantly masculine, but very seldom female name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it is commonest in Slovenia, Cameroon, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Also, ฝรั่ง is the last name as well as the forename.
