Hi mate!

1. form a C.S.F. of the Lewis structure.

2. divide the main chain from the braches. IMPORTANT :remember the IUPAC rules which say that u shud choose the longest chain.

3. now name the branches and the no. of C atom at which it is forming a bond with, like 2-methyl, 3-methyl, 3-butyl etc.

4. look upon the main branch, and name it , like -propane, -butane etc.

5. combine both the names and prepare the isomer's name.

The previous answer concerning the names is correct. The classification is primary though. To make sure it describes the exact species is very important. Especially for the next isomer found. There is a family thing happening here. The unique name may carry a part of the discovering party.
