Guey can be used as dude, or in place of someone´s name.

¿Qué pasa guey?

It´s used in Mexico a lot.

This really does not have a translation, its a word that does not have an equivalent in spanish. But there are words that could be used in its place but these words vary by reigon. Just as you would not hear dude being said in certain parts of the US but in its place another word.

No exact equivalent exists. Words like dude are all created repetitively to express the same thing, bud, guy, boys, chumps, joshes, johns, cats, etc.

Try some of these

Mexico and Central America: Vato, güey, carnal, Venezuela and some other Caribbean countries: pana Ecuador: ñaño Perú: Pata, causa
