Which is correct?
1. I bought a book which name is xxx.
2. I bought a book, which name is xxx.I thought both of them are correct.
The first means that I maybe bought many a lot of books. one of them named XXX.
The second one means I only bought one book name XXX.
Am I correct?

To be honest, neither of these sounds natural (I thought the second one with the comma was best though). You can really shorten this with, "I bought a book titled _____ ." Or, "I bought a book called/named _____ ." These are natural examples that a native speaker would likely use.

Hello Jonn ^_^ The one that will sound more clear would be: I bought a book called 'XXX'

Hi John !
The second sentence is right.

I agree with tim80110. A book's name is its title. I would probably say, "I bought a book TITLED How Not to Write a Novel."
I used to work at a bookstore and I would ask, "What's the name of the book you're looking for? What is its title?" If I saw your name was Jonathan in my database, I would ask, "WHICH NAME do you normally use? John or Jonathan?"
