char firstn[100];

char secondn[100];

printf("\n\bPlease Enter Your First Name:  ");

scanf("%s", &firstn );

fflush(stdout);

Sleep(1234);

printf("\r\bPlease Enter Your Second Name: ");

scanf("%s", &Secondn);

To clear the screen you can use:

... // Other headers
#include <stdlib.h>

int main{
   ... // Code
   system("clear"); // or system("cls"); on Windows.
   ... // Code
}

And this should work for your purposes.
