Good
Hello teachers!
Somtimes, during a phone call , the distant party ask me "what is your good name?"
I simply tell my name.
What is meaning of "good name" here?
Thanks.

This appears to be a variety of English with which I am not familiar, Hanuman. 'Good' appears to be an honorific, carrying no meaning in itself but showing respect for the listener and his/her name.
