Probably not the easiest project to start with, since you can't really write anything on an object. You can fudge it with various cuts and tapers to have lots of individual surfaces on several prims, and then do clever texture manipulations to show the letters on those surfaces. XYText is a common script in circulation for doing that; it should be easy to find in the script libraries on the various wikis, or available lots of places inworld.
The rest of the script should be quite simple, though; just a touch_start event to react to the touch and prompt the user to speak out the wanted name, and a listen, keyed to that avatar to pick up the chat and send the text to the XYText.
