Unless talking to foreigners who don't know any different, Thais will never call their capital city Bangkok - indeed, some Thais in the more remote provinces may never have even heard of it being called that. Instead in Thai it is known as Krung Thep (กรุงเทพ), which roughly translates to 'City of Angels'

I am sad enough to be impressed by the two of you knowing where to go to cut and paste in Thai - and will continue ot be so whatever you say!

Bangkok (translating as 'village of "wild plums'") is quite well named.
