Ok you wil need to create a flat file and name it as myname.js then save it in the same directory along with your (x)html document.
Here's the code for myname.js:

function printMyName() {
document.write('Your name!'); }

Now incorporate it with your (x)HTML document:

<html>
<head>
<title>Your title</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="./myname.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<p><script type="text/javascript">
// Now let's call the function on the external .js

printMyName();</script></p>
</body>
</html>
