I had this same problem until I stopped thinking about saying my name. When the time came to introduce myself, I didn't get worked up, I just said it. Sometimes I stuttered, other times not. This eroded my anxiety surrounding introducing myself, and now I only stutter on my name 5-10% of the time as compared to 60-70% before. This was a process that developed over a few years.
