void gotoxy(int x, int y){

     SetConsoleCursorPosition(GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE),coord);
     

     }
example

Please Enter your name : Ron
Please Enter your Surname : Smash
Your name is : r.Smash


// just an example that i input my name Ron and a surname Smash

You should not be using Gotos as they can create confusing spaghetti code. Try this function code.

void getfullname(char urname[], char surname[],char fullname[])
{
  fullname[0] = tolower(urname[0]);
  fullname[1] = '.';
  int i = 0;
  while( surname[i] != '\0';)
  {
    fullname[i] = surname[i];
   }
}

where should i put this code sir ? thank you in advance :)

This is a function and it can be put anywhere above or under main. basically when using this function you pass in your name for urname, your surname for your surname, and the char array that you are using to hold the full name. After you use this function and then print out fullname[] it should print it out in the smaller format that you are trying to use.
