#C_3H_8-="propane"#

Explanation:

#C_3H_6-="propene or propylene"#

And for #C_3H_4#, we got #"allene"-=H_2C=C=CH_2#...I think, and Ernest will correct me if I am wrong, that this is formally called #"propadiene"#...most inorganic chemists would call it #"allene"#.

The structure of allene is interesting in that the planes of the #CH_2# groups are normal to each other to give a formal #D_(2d)# point group.
