How to add carriage return ESP8266

 Ok , I thought if I clicked on copy for forum in the IDE program, that would be correct. But that is off topic anyway. 
 What I was attempting to ask is if there was a way when send to serial monitor using ESP 8266 was there a way to in software to emulate a user pressing enter. 
 If I send exact same code to a Nano it asks “What is your name” , if I send it to the ESP nothing happens unless you hit enter first. Then and only then will it ask “What’s your name”. 
 Hope this clears things up , it’s not a big deal either way, was just trying to learn something here.
