Answer 1

Just wrap your desired output in a print statement:

func<-function(name){
  print("Your name is. . .")

  Sys.sleep(1.5)

  print(name)
}

#Execute Function
func("Martin")

[1] "Your name is. . ."
[1] "Martin"

Answer 2

I'm not quite sure what the question is, but this produces the behavior you are talking about.

func <- function(name)
{
print("Your name is. . .")
flush.console()
Sys.sleep(1.5)
print(name)
}

> func('Test')
[1] "Your name is. . ."
[1] "Test"
