All the activities mentioned indicate a healthy child.
Sometimes children can take some time to identify or associate with a few things. You can wait and watch for the next 3 months as each day children will showcase their new learnings and adaptive behaviour.
Happy Healthy Living!

I hardly get any symptoms of autism spectrum disorder in what you have explained about your child. The issue with name response too does not seem to be significant. Yet I would suggest you to go through an autism assessment in any well organised autism centre. This is to rule out even the remotest possibility of autism in her. I would suggest you not to delay this assessment because if at all any unlikely possibility of autism exists in her, dealing with it at the earliest is the right approach. As time passes, the restoration of normalcy in autistic children becomes a bit more difficult.
Next Steps
Please get an autism assessment done.
