When you add the "do", it's like you're stressing the point that you know the person's name.
-You don't know my name.
-I DO know your name. (in contrast to what the person has said).
You'd use "I know your name" when you're just stating a fact.
It's similar to:
-You've never been to France, so you don't know anything about it.
-I HAVE been to France, so I DO know a lot about it.
(a simple statement would be "I've been to France. I know quite a lot about it")
