Just remove dataType:text. Or you can use dataType:"json" as per your requirement. Well, you can read more on this dataType here also: $.ajax - dataType

And for name parameter, you are missing to append that variable in fd variable.

So, your script should be like this:

<script type="text/javascript" >
$(function() {
$("#upload").click(function() {
var name = $('#name').val();
var fd = new FormData();
var files = $('#file')[0].files[0];
fd.append('file',files);
fd.append('name',name); // you were missing this, that's why $_POST['name'] was blank
$.ajax({
  type: "post",
  url: "upload.php", 
  cache: false,
  contentType: false,
  processData: false,
  data: fd,
  success: function(){

  }
});
return false;
});
});
</script>

Now try by printing below code into your upload.php file:

<?php
echo $nama   = $_POST['name'];
echo $filename = $_FILES['file']['name'];
?>
