You would use a macro.

Go to the "View" menu and down to "Toolbars" and select "Forms"

Position the cursor where you want your field and click the first button on the toolbar (Text Form Field).

Then Right-click the "Text Form Field" in your document, and choose "Properties". Then enter your " [your name here] " in the "Default Text" box.

I forgot.

You'll need to "protect" the document after you've done all the above.

It's the Lock icon on the Forms toolbar.
