is this third argument valid for this function? if not how would i make my std::string return the start address of a c string??

The third argument is valid (it's just a c-style string), but the fourth argument is incorrect. name.size() or name.size()+1 is likely what you intended.

The actual storage in a string object need not include a null character at the end. In cases where it's not maintained internally, the c_str member function will add one.
