Best Answer

Yes, the phrase 'May I have the spelling of your name' is correct grammar. The verb 'may' refers to cooperation or permission. This example indeed asks for cooperation or permission in getting the spelling correct. In contrast, the verb 'can' refers to capability. But the above example isn't concerned with whether or not the speaker is capable of hearing or seeing the correct spelling. The example instead asks for access to information with the cooperation or permission of the listener.
