joining 2 const char*s c++

Question

How can I combine two const char*s into a third?

i'm trying to do this with this code:

const char* pName = "Foo"
printf("\nMy name is %s.\n\n\n",pName);
const char* nName;
int num_chars = asprintf(&nName, "%s%s", "Somebody known as ", pName);

But I get this error:

'asprintf': identifier not found

I include stdio.h via this code:

#include <stdio.h>

Simple, just use C++:

const char* pName = "Foo"
std::string name("Somebody known as ");
name += pName;

const char* nName = name.c_str();
