How to say my friend with a name


For example, "my friend Tomoko" Is it correct to say "友達の朋子?" As in:
昨日、友達の朋子ちゃんと２人で買物に行きました。

Also, how would you say "my friend is called Tomoko"?




Yes, "友達の朋子" is perfectly fine and means "my friend Tomoko" like you thought.

If you want to say "my friend is called Tomoko"; I think that the simplest is
"友達の名前は朋子です".
