However, to answer your question, at first I put it just right under the very last name in what I could assume was the first names place, I just opened the names XML and tried to paste the output under the last entry

This looks a lot to me like Excel (or Sheets if you're using Sheets) is taking in your XML and trying to parse it as a .csv, or else parsing the XML very, very badly. Those angle brackets denote individual records or properties and shouldn't be displayed like that.

Have you tried dropping that data into an XML editor, for instance this one that's available online?
