You have the tú form that is both common in Spain and the Americas. - NKM1974, Sep 27, 2017

I don't know about Spain, but if you ask ¿Cuál es su nombre? in Latin America they will tell you their first name. If you want first and last name you would ask ¿Cuál es su nombre completo?

Here's a link from the language guide: How to Say "What's your name?" in Spanish

Both are common in Spain and the Americas. The only difference here is the tú and usted forms.
