I have found solution and it works for me. :)

Here is the solution, if you may need this in your any project-

Step 1: Added name text fields on HTML form. I user jQuery ToolTip for showing phonetic name suggetions

XML

<input type="text" id="txtFname" name="txtFname" class="phonetic" value="" title="" />
        <input type="text" id="txtMname" name="txtMname" class="phonetic" value="" title="" />
        <input type="text" id="txtSname" name="txtSname" class="phonetic" value="" title="" />

Step 2: Designed a javascript function 'GetPhoneticSuggestion' to get phonetic string.

C#

function GetPhoneticSuggestion(string) {

            var arrPhonetic = [
             { key: 'a', value: 'Alpha' },
            { key: 'b', value: 'Bravo' },
            { key: 'c', value: 'Charlie' },
            { key: 'd', value: 'Delta' },
            { key: 'e', value: 'Echo' },

            { key: 'f', value: 'Foxtrot' },
            { key: 'g', value: 'Golf' },
            { key: 'h', value: 'Hotel' },
            { key: 'i', value: 'India' },
            { key: 'j', value: 'Juliet' },

            { key: 'k', value: 'kilo' },
            { key: 'l', value: 'Lima' },
            { key: 'm', value: 'Mike' },
            { key: 'n', value: 'November' },
            { key: 'o', value: 'Oscar' },

            { key: 'p', value: 'Papa' },
            { key: 'q', value: 'Quebec' },
            { key: 'r', value: 'Romeo' },
            { key: 's', value: 'Sierra' },
            { key: 't', value: 'Tango' },


            { key: 'u', value: 'Uniform' },
            { key: 'v', value: 'Victor' },
            { key: 'w', value: 'Wiskey' },
            { key: 'x', value: 'X-Ray' },
            { key: 'y', value: 'Yankee' },

            { key: 'z', value: 'Zulu' }
            ];

            var phoneticWord = '';

            for (l = 0; l < string.length; l++) {
                $.each(arrPhonetic, function (i, k) {
                    if (k.key == string[l]) {
                        phoneticWord += k.value + ' - ';
                        return false;
                    } else if ($.trim(string[l]) == '') {
                        phoneticWord += ' |SPACE| '+ ' - ';
                        return false;
                    }
                });
            }
            phoneticWord = $.trim(phoneticWord.substring(0, phoneticWord.lastIndexOf('-')));

            return phoneticWord;
        }

Step 3: Call it on HTML page where i put my textboxes

Include below JS and CSS
* jquery-ui.css
* jquery-1.11.1.js
* jquery-1.10.2.js
* jquery-ui.js

XML

<script type="text/javascript">
        $(function () {
            $('.phonetic').tooltip({
                content: function () {
                    if ($.trim($(this).val()) != '')
                        return GetPhoneticSuggestion($.trim($(this).val().toLowerCase()));
                }
            });
        });
</script>
