Tienes should be correct for tu

Te Llamas    -  Informally, I have learnt in theory,  that it should be correct although Que te llamas is formal!

Hola Pinky

As Prahlad said, the question is always formulated as "¿Cómo te llamas [tú]?", or if you want the formal version of it then you need "¿Cómo se llama [usted]?"

You can drop the pronounsand usted, they are not necessary.

Never say "¿Qué te llamas?" - it must always be "¿Cómo te llamas?"

"¿Cómo te llamas?" is the form most commonly used.
