Grammar questions

I read the following

My name's Rob Mellett and I'm the Founder of Unity Hypnosis. I wanted to take a second to welcome you to the family.

1. Do native speakers use "name's" to introduce himself? Or "name is" more common.
2. Can I write "founder" , no capital?
3. Can I use "want" for "wanted"? Any difference?

Thank you.

1) Yes, except when speaking formally. 2) Yes. It's better with lower case.

1) Yes, except when speaking formally.
2) Yes. It's better with lower case.
3) Yes. No real difference here. 'Wanted' is a little less direct, and thus a tiny bit more polite.
