You asked:

What is your name?

I assume that you want to know how to say this in Spanish.

There are several ways to say this. The two most common are:

¿Cómo se llama? = literally: How do you call yourself? (formal, Usted form)

and

¿Cómo te llamas? = literally: How do you call yourself? (familiar, tú form)

other possibilities, although less common and more formal are:

¿Cuál es tú nombre? = Which/what is your name? (familiar, tú form)

and

¿Cuál es su nombre? = Which/what is your name? (formal, Usted form)
