The Sumerian writing system isn't exactly an alphabet. The technical term is "syllabary", because the symbols stand (mostly) for syllables, not individual sounds. A pair of free fonts representing the state of the cuneiform syllabary at the time of the Third Dynasty of Ur (21st century BC), with roughly 500 separate symbols, has been made available by Guillaume Malingue (see related link below).
Egyptian - hieroglyphics, Phoenician - alphabet, Sumerian - cuneiform, Akkadian - cuneiform.
Sumerian writing used cuneiform (Latin: "wedge-shaped") characters that had developed from pictographs. This system never developed into an alphabet while it was being used to write Sumerian, or most of the other languages that adopted cuneiform writing (e.g., Akkadian and Old Persian). However, a true alphabet of cuneiform symbols was developed by the people of Ugarit to write their language, which was related to Hebrew. (Strictly speaking, Ugaritic cuneiform employed an abjad, which is a term for an alphabetic system that lacks vowels.)
Latin is a language that originated in ancient Rome and is written using the Latin alphabet, not in cuneiform, which is a system of writing used in ancient Mesopotamia. Cuneiform was used to write languages like Sumerian, Akkadian, and Babylonian, but not Latin.
You can't. Most cuneiform was used for accounting purposes and it isn't an alphabet, so in any case, a name couldn't be transcribed.
Cuneiform writing provided the basis for the development of writing systems in the ancient Near East, including Akkadian, Sumerian, and Assyrian. It also influenced the development of other writing systems, such as the Phoenician alphabet and ultimately, modern writing systems.

Archaeologists call the Sumerian writing system "cuneiform". We do not know what the Sumerians called it.

The Phoenicians improved upon the Sumerian invention by when the Sumerians invented the first writing system (symbols and cuneiform) the Phoenicians invented the alphabet which was easier.
