In the entire world, Phaphong (พงษ์ 
, พาพงษ์ , Phaphong ) is a rare dominantly boy's, but uncommonly female forename. The forename Phaphong is characteristic of South-eastern Asia, particularly Thailand, where it is quite a rare mostly masculine, but seldom girly name. Very seldom, Phaphong is the last name as well as the forename.
