We do not know for certain what the names of the Blessed Virgin's parents were. The names Anne and Joachim come from the Gospel of James, also known as the Infancy Gospel of James or the Protoevangelium of Jameswhich is an apocryphal Gospel probably written about AD 145. This is where the origin of St. Anne and St. Joachim began and, for lack of other evidence to either confirm or contradict the information, the names have remained a part of Church tradition for nearly 2000 years.
