== Biography ==
Prukchanon Thongchay was initially named Thanadach Sriratchaha and was born on April 21, 2006, at [[Chaophraya Abhaibhubejhr Hospital]] in [[Prachinburi]], [[Thailand]]. He is of [[Teochew]] and [[Hainan]] [[Chinese people|Chinese]] descent who immigrated to [[Thailand]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-05-07 |title=Profile of Ahfong–Prukchanon Thongchay, a handsome young Thai-Chinese boy |url=https://board.postjung.com/1545236 |access-date=2025-08-23 |website=Postjung.com |language=th}}</ref>
His biological parents [[divorced]] when he was only 3 days old. Kanokorn Thongchay (maternal grandmother) and '''Wanchai Thongchay''' [[officially]] [[adopted]] him in 2007, and his surname was changed to "Thongchay". His [[biological mother]] is [[Thai Chinese]] and the [[daughter]] of Kanokorn, while his [[biological father]] is [[Thai]]. His original nickname, "Ahfong," was given by his [[biological father]], derived from [[Bao Zheng]] ([[Justice Bao]] or [[Bao Gong]]). Because the name was difficult to pronounce, his family started calling him '''Ahvo''' or '''Vo''', which means "passing wind".
His birth name was "Thanadach," but it was later changed to "Prukchanon" upon the recommendation of a [[fortune teller]], which means "The great tree of happiness and stability".<ref>{{Cite web |date=2025-05-29 |title=Profile of rising actor "Ahfong Prukchanon" — a handsome young man with a soft look |url=https://board.postjung.com/1625712 |access-date=2025-08-23 |website=Postjung.com |language=th}}</ref>
