You can use an attribute value template to set the Name

<RegistryValue Name="{substring-after(wix:File/@Source, '\')}" />

This should extract the sub-string after the first slash, and assign the result to the attribute name.

To remove any dots from the text, you can use the translate function, like so

<RegistryValue Name="{translate(substring-after(wix:File/@Source, '\'), '.', '')}" />
