A Vietnamese-Australian man who had to share his passport online to prove his name is really 'Phuc Dat Bich' has thanked his supporters after his plight set the internet alight.

The 23-year-old bank cleaner vented his frustration on Facebook earlier this year after the social media giant terminated his account three times, claiming it was 'false and misleading.'

On Monday, the Melbourne man took to his page to thank the scores of supporters from around the world after the post amassed tens of thousands of shares and hilarious comments.

'I'd like to mention that I am very grateful to those who have been supportive of certain names that populate in different cultures,' the post reads.

'We live in a diverse and multicultural society and the fact that there are people out there who are supportive and encouraging really makes me happy.'

The name, which is pronounced 'Phoop Dook Bic,' is common in Vietnam, despite the spectacular response it has received in Australia.

The post, which was uploaded in January this year, had grabbed international attention.

'I've never ranted nor wept that my post would get this sort of exposure,' he continued.

'But I am glad and honoured to be able to make people happy by simply making them laugh at something that appears outrageous and ridiculous.

'Much tragic events have happened all over the world, out of it all only happiness can mend. As an individual I hope I have played a part in brightening your days!

'PDB.'

His appreciation post comes after the car enthusiast decided to take matters into his own hands when he made it clear on Facebook that his name was authentic.

‘I find it highly irritating the fact that nobody seems to believe me when I say that my full legal name is how you see it,’ the post reads.

‘I've been accused of using a false and misleading name of which I find very offensive. Is it because I'm Asian? Is it?’

‘Having my fb shut down multiple times and forced to change my name to my "real" name, so just to put it out there. My name.'

‘Yours sincerely,’

‘Phuc Dat Bich’
