Hello, Nathan, all of the variants sound artificial as answers to the question about your name. 'It's' should be left out. A better reply would be 'William McKane' or simply 'William', in case one's surname is not required in a casual situation.

One common way to have your name known is to give your last name at first, and then follow with your full name ("McKane, William McKane"), which gives the listener two chances to hear the surname, the one that is usually more difficult to remember.
