You just have to make them nilable.

func myMethod(name name: String? = nil, age age: Int? = nil) {
    print(name!)
}

Notice: when yo make parameters optional, you have to be careful about how to unwrap them. usually using if let syntax is helpful.

func myMethod(name name: String? = nil, age age: Int? = nil) {
  if let name = name {
     print(name)
  }
}

you can also provide default value for them:

func myMethod(name name: String? = "Donald", age age: Int? = 10) {
    print(name!)
}
