Hi, Sasha!
It's been a while since you entered the Bulletin Board, so you may already know it, but the word "is / am" is spelled and pronounced differently in Japanese, and you written it down as a pronunciation in Japanese. So the spelling for "is / am / are" is: は ("ha"), but the pronunciation is 「わ」 ("wa"). This is an exception (the most common of this type) and does not mean that all syllables は are pronounced as わ (or vice versa - it does not mean that all sounds わ are written as は). Therefore, in words such as "mother" 「はは」 or "leaf" 「は」, the syllable "ha" is both written and pronounced as "ha" (it should be said that kanji is used more often in writing because they are nouns). Therefore, in words like "wasabi" (because it is no exception, as the word "is / am / are"), the syllable "wa" will both written and pronounced as "wa". I mentioned this because, due to an exception to the word "is / am / are", there are people who, for example, all syllables 「は」 begin to pronounce as 「わ」, or all syllables 「わ」 begin to write as 「は」 (because do not know that inconsistent spelling and pronunciation is an exceptional rule that does not affect all cases).
Another note: the use of a question mark ("?") Is not obligatory (although due to Western influences the Japanese do so quite often) - this is because the form of the question at the end of the sentence already forms a question sentence, hence the question mark ("?") may be replaced by a Japanese dot ("。"). However, whether or not to use a question mark is a free choice, as the Japanese sometimes use it.
In general, your Japanese text correction may look like this (は use is obligatory, the "?" sign can be left if desired): 私の名はサシャです。君の名は何。
As with a foreign word, a "katakana" style syllable pattern is used for your name (fortunately, your name can be written without changes - this is not always possible with other foreign words). Here is another exception law that makes シャ pronounce as "sha" (instead of "shya") at the end of your word; this exception is caused by the use of the syllable シ (normally the root of the syllable "ya" would not be removed in similar situations).
In addition, なん at the end of your second sentence is better to replace with kanji 何.
Finally, the second sentence is a bit informal (which I keep as is). Here is a slightly more formal version: 貴方の名前は何ですか。
The pronunciation of this will be "Anata no namae wa nan desu ka?".
The content is essentially unchanged, although it can also be understood as a question after full name (which in itself is more formal).
Oops, I got a pretty long text here... OK, bye, then!
