Had this problem myself but in my case it was from a type of double.

In the case of python make sure to specify the appropriate version of cql

cql.connect(cluster_address, port, keyspace, cql_version='3.1.1')

You need to create the name column as text or varchar. The error you are getting suggests that it was created as blob.
