For Loops

I began learning C++ today, and it's my first programming language so please bear with me. I want to execute a for loop that would allow me to receive the input as a string and then output it, multiple times.

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    string input = "";
        cout << "What is your name: \n";
        for ( int x = 10; x < 20; x++ )
        getline( cin, input );
        cout << "Your name is " << input <<"!";
    cin.get();
}


So it would ask you the question, output the answer, and repeat.
If you guys could help me, I'd be very appreciative.

Thank you.
There code above is heading in the right direction. But the main problem is the missing braces { and } around the statements which are to be controlled by the loop.

Take a look at some of the examples in the tutorial;
