It is quite legitimate to use the name Viet Nam and Vietnam interchangably, although in the west Vietnam has become by far the most common.
The Socialist Republic of Vietnam, or Vietnam (or Viet Nam), is a country in Southeast Asia. Situated in eastern Indochina, it borders countries such as China, Laos, Cambodia, as well as the South China Sea.
