Hi Selvi,
In this case, the reflexive verb is s'appeler -
nous nous appelons = our name is or Lit. 'we call ourselves'.
Take a look at the following Kwiziq lesson on reflexive verb -

Just a warning, there are lots of so-called reflexive verbs in French and you will need to get used to them. Just think of them as having an extra pronoun.
Hope this helps!
Nous nous appelons. -- We call each other.
This is a reflexive construction and you use it whenever the subject and the object refer to the same person(s).
