That's the normal behavior for reading into strings. If you want to read 
to the end of the line, try this:

import std.stdio;
import std.string;

void main() {
     write("What is your name? ");
     string name = readln.strip;

     writeln("Hello ", name, "!");
}

(It's the same as strip(readln()).)

Here is more information about readln() and strip() as well as 
formattedRead(), which can be more convenient:
