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.

3) Yes. No real difference here. 'Wanted' is a little less direct, and thus a tiny bit more polite.
