Google the chemical name and MSDS after it. Most MSDS sheets have a synonym section that contains the common names for the chemicals.
Examples:
Rubidium Bromide: hydrobromic acid rubidium salt
Cesium Fluoride: Tetrafluorosilane

A good way to show the difference between them is an example, so let's use Oxygen. Oxygen's chemical symbol is just O. It's name would simply be Oxygen. A chemical formula, in contrast to a symbol, is a combination of multiple elements, such as water's chemical formula is H2O, two particles of Hydrogen, one particle of Oxygen.
