I just started to use the Google's TTS api, when I list the available voices api lists the names of the voices as

What should I write to the code below to select for example Standart-B voice?

Here's an example in C# - you need to specify both the language code and the name in the VoiceSelectionParams:

using Google.Cloud.TextToSpeech.V1;
using System;
using System.IO;

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        var client = TextToSpeechClient.Create();

        // List the voices, just for reference
        foreach (var voice in client.ListVoices("tr-TR").Voices)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(voice.Name);
        }

        // Synthesize some speech
        var input = new SynthesisInput { Text = "This is a demo of Google Cloud text to speech" };
        // The language code is always required, even when it's sort of part of the name
        var voiceSelection = new VoiceSelectionParams
        {
            LanguageCode = "tr-TR",
            Name = "tr-TR-Standard-B"
        };
        var audioConfig = new AudioConfig { AudioEncoding = AudioEncoding.Mp3 };
        var response = client.SynthesizeSpeech(input, voiceSelection, audioConfig);
        File.WriteAllBytes("test.mp3", response.AudioContent.ToByteArray());
    }
}

Judging by the documentation, I think in Python you'd want:

voice = texttospeech.types.VoiceSelectionParams(
    language_code='tr-TR',
    name='tr-TR-Standard-B')
