I you just want to save a name, you could also use PlayerPrefs :

To save using XML files, you could use System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer
.
For example, create a class representing the player character et serialize an instance into a xml file. When you want to load, deserialize it to get the instance back.

The main problem of using xml file is that it is really easy for players to cheat, because it easy to edit a savefile written in xml.
this is what i was originally going to do but i was having trouble with making multiple save stat, although t i think i have figured that out.
