SELECT coalesce(c1.c_name,c2.c_name) as cus_name, p.p_name product_name 
from   product p
JOIN   customer1 c1 
on     c1.c_id=p.c_id
JOIN   customer2 c2 
on     c2.c_id=p.c_id;

Answer 2

Try:

    SELECT coalesce(c1.c_name,c2.c_name) as customer_name, p.p_name from product p
    left JOIN customer1 c1 on c1.c_id=p.c_id
    left JOIN customer2 c2 on c2.c_id=p.c_id;

Answer 3

Try this untested query:

SELECT ifnull (c1.c_name ,c2.c_name) as customer_name, p.p_name from product p
left JOIN customer1 c1 on c1.c_id=p.c_id
left JOIN customer2 c2 on c2.c_id=p.c_id;

Answer 4

this may help in your case

SELECT coalesce(k1.c_name,k2.c_name) as customer_name, j.p_name from product j
    left JOIN customer1 k1 on k1.c_id=j.c_id
    left JOIN customer2 k2 on k2.c_id=j.c_id;
