OKay,  the responses are much appreciated.

 (Borek)- I did check it on ACD before posting the question but am new to the program so wasn't sure how accurate it is.  On the quiz I got it wrong and just wanted to understand how and what it is called.

It's not wrong, you can also named the organic compound by ChemDraw software,which contain convert name to structure and convert structure to name.
