With having several errors in writing, I'm just guessing. The riddle might be written and read as the following:

I met Man on London Bridge. He tipped his hat and drew his cane. In this riddle I already gave you his name. What is it?

The answer is: Man

In speaking, some people wouldn't realize that there was no article "a" before the name. So the trick in such riddles is that the speaker would say :"I met Man" and the listener would hear it "I met a man".
