The "ng" phoneme is the only phoneme which exists in the English language which can be pronounced medially (in the middle of a word), as well as terminally (at the end of a word), but which cannot be pronounced initially (right; at the beginning). You can say singing without any problem. But nginging just won't come out, at least not without working at it. Which is what you have to do. But practice saying "singing-ing-ing-ing, and you can begin to isolate this phoneme for initial pronounciation. Once you've achieved this, apply it to the Nguyen name. There is a "w" phoneme, becouse of the u following the ng, just like there is following any q with a u after it in English. And the uy of the word is pronounce like a long e: ngwee-yen(g). The (g) is about regional dialect: southern accent pronounces the terminal n as ng; northern simply as n.
This is if you want to pronounce it like it is in Vietnamese, unlike all the answers before this one, which are Americanizations, or Anglicizations of the name.
