saying someones name in spanish

Question

él se llama Kaden. This does say ¨his name is Kaden¨ right? To say her name is ... I would write ella se llama ... Is this correct? Im doing a family tree project for my spaish class and i want to make sure this is right.

Answer 1

Él se llama __________ <---- Here goes the name of your male classmate

Ella se llama _________ <---- Here goes the name of your female classmate

Or if you prefer you can also say:

Su nombre es _________ <---- Here you add either the name of a male or a female without having to put the pronoun él or ella.

Answer 2

You are correct. However the "él" or "ella" is not necessary unless you are emphasizing "he" or "she". If you would supply a little more context I could be more accurate in my explanation.
