First you look up the Cherokee syllabry chart (this is not an alphabet, but consists mainly of units comprising a consonant plus a vowel) - the link below takes you to a chart.

Be prepared to arrive at an approximation of your name, since the syllabry was designed to write Cherokee Words, not English ones, so it may not have exactly corresponding sounds.

For example, using the chart I could make the name "Rachel" by taking the signs for le (there is no "re") + tse + la and come up with letsela, which is as close as you can get. For the name "David" I could use de + wi + dv to make dewidv.
