@munsupark:
имя is for human beings, sometimes animals (when they're seen almost like humans, especially pets, but that's not that common)
название is for shops, organizations, books, magazines, products – anything, but not animated
кличка is for animals

Obviously wrong
Explanation is not enough
Written in a language I can't understand
Answer is not related to the question
Other reason
- Korean
- Russian
имя бывает только у человека. например - мое имя Катя.
название у неодушевленных предметов. например- название города, название песни, название книги, название инструмента, название картины.

имя (n) is for human beings.
кличка (f) means the name of a pet.
название (n) is for inanimate things, including animal species.
Sometimes in literature you can meet имя used towards a name of a ship or a city, also towards humanized animal beings (in fantasy books), but usually we don't say like this.
