"The name of the book" and "The book's name" mean the same thing.

"The book's name is ... " is used more commonly because it's shorter, though.

Examples of usage:

"The name of the book is Apple's Pride."

"The book's name is Harry Potter."

Thank you for your quick answer!
Is it wrong to say "book name"?
Do I need to add apostrophe after the verb?

Yes, it is wrong to say "book name". You need to add an apostrophe after the noun "book" :)
