I also noticed that it seems to be in a number of european languages. I
know that in frenh it is le nom, and in German ie Name, but are there
any other european language with the word name?


Lots: Dutch naam, Spanish nombre, Portuguese nome, Latin nomen.

Slavic languages have something similar yet a bit different.

Polish imię, Czech jmeno, Sorbian mjeno (cognate to Polish miano - "designation, title"), Russian imya, Belarussian imya, Croatian ime, Old Church Slavonic imę.
