Are there thin French fries? (Are they called fries?)

Yes, they're usually called shoestring fries.

Edit: oh, you're asking the Englishman.

...then what do they call shoestring potatoes?..

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

all of these things are under the wonderful chippy umbrella ofโœจ๐ŸŒˆ chips ๐ŸŒˆโœจ

(we'd just call em shoestring chips or even shoestring fries if we were feeling sacrilegious)

Yeh, fries or french fries. Maybe thin cut chips.
Somewhere like McDonald where they only do french fries, we would just ask for chips
