Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.
Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.
usually you'd say désolée if you're a woman
the full sentence is "je suis désolée" (I am sorry), but it's shortened to désolée 99% of the time
ooh like that is it okay if I ask another question?
a guy would say désolé instead
yh sure go ahead
so it's about the verb s'appeler
I don't understand the nous nous appelons and vous vous appelez part
and what they translate to precisely
oh this is not the verb "appeler" but "s'appeler" (litteraly 'to call oneself')
so s'appeler means to call oneself
yep
kind of historic
well no

it means "to be called"
sorry 

but what do nous nous appelons and vous vous appelez translate to then
like
we call ourseves
or
our name is
this means "we're called" and "you're called"
I suggest, if you're a super beginner
to follow this

You're correct as far as the literal translation is concerned. With reflexive verbs:
- Je me: I ... myself
- Tu te: You ... yourself
- Il/Elle/On se: He/She/One/It ... itself
- Nous nous : We ... ourselves
- Vous vous: You (pl.) ... yourselves
- Ils/Elles se: They ... themselves
