Are you asking me out? That’s so cute. What’s your name again?

What it means
Our interpretation.
The speaker meets a possible date's approach with airy condescension, calling it 'cute' as though it were a small, harmless novelty. Asking for the name again seals the brush-off, implying the effort barely registered and that the person asking counts for very little.
