Basic question

How do I get the name of a person who put money into my machine. Such as "Jade Bard"

At the top of the UI is A WORLD menu. Use that to see "my account". You can look at the details and see who has paid you.

Doh, I just noticed this is the scripting forum, probably not what you meant.

Yeah in my script. I want to know the name of the person who put money in the pot.

You can do two things:
A. Use llKey2Name.
B. Use llRequestAgentData.

The latter takes a bit of thought to implement, and the former is not guarenteed to work if the object that the money is given to is close to a sim border.

llKey2Name is simple:

money(key giver, integer amount) {
    llSay(0, "Thanks for giving me money " + llKey2Name(giver));
}

llRequestAgentData is... well... not:

key moneyGiverKey = NULL_KEY;
string moneyGiverName = "";
integer moneyPaid = 0;

key curRequest = NULL_KEY
default {
    money(key giver, integer amount) {
        // Find the name of the giver:
        curRequest = llRequestAgentData(giver, DATA_NAME);
    }
    dataserver(key req, string data) {
        if (req == curRequest) {
            moneyGiverName = data;
            state ready;
        }
    }
}

state ready {
    state_entry() {
        llSay(0, "Thanks for giving me money " + moneyGiverName);
    }
}
