Double Quotes.

Single quote represent actual text. So it will always print what is inbetween them.

Ah if only you'd had a syntax highlighting text editor, would have spotted that one instantly.
The variable's not in double quotes, though. This is taken literally from the page:
[code] setcookie ("lap", '$name', time() + 3600);[/code]

That's exactly how it's in the page, but when the coolkie is echoed from another page, it actually says "$name".

Also, since I'm broke, I use notepad. Works for HTML pretty well, but not so much with PHP.

What!? You don't have to pay for syntax highlighting text editors! Just google it, there are a few good ones around for Windows. I use Linux though which is a free operating system and all the programs on it are completely free. It also comes with a text editor called Kate which is a joy to code with. It uses really sophisticated syntax highlighting and supports hundreds of languages as well keeping your tabs which is invaluable. Pity there's not a Windows version I know of, you could compile it from source I guess...
