Great!
In that case, to reset your Apple ID password:

  1. Go to iforgot.apple.com
  2. Enter your Apple ID.
  3. Select the option to reset your password, then choose Continue.

After that, choose to answer your security questions, get an email, and follow the onscreen steps to reset your password.
And let me know if any of the steps are not quite clear.
I'll be happy to clarify them for you!

Am trying but it’s not recognizing my Apple ID or even my name

Tell me, please, the email address and the phone number that are connected to your Apple ID

Thank you!
I`ve checked the information and your email address is recognized
So, please, try the instruction on how to reset your Apple ID password one more time:

  1. Go to iforgot.apple.com
  2. Enter *****@gmail.com and tap Continue
  3. Then enter ***** and tap Continue and tell me what you see there
