Ignore All '+' signs while solving. for better visualisation redraw the structure in a paper without the '+' signs. Here '+' are given to maintain the structure as it does not take spaces and the structure was not accurate.

I agree with Ross P with a couple of exceptions.
5,8-dimethyl-4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-nonene
As I read your structure, I think that the hydroxyethyl group is one carbon number 4.
Be sure to 2x check the actual structure.
I am not sure why all of my name will not transfer but if you hover over the ... marks with the cursor, it will show in highlight.

Yes, that's the IUPAC name. Just google the individual compound's molecular formula and see what pops up.

4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-5,8- dimethyl-1-nonene
Donot consider the space between 8-dimethyl, I gave it to post the WHOLE name!!
It should also be according to alphabetical order of ring attachments........Docrider apparently forgot that!
consider 'm' of methyl and 'h' of hydroxyethyl
di prefix is not considered!
Longest chain is 9 membered thus nonene.

Named from the longest chain, which is nine carbons long:
5,8-methyl-3-( 2-hydroxyethyl)-1-nonene
