I've been trying to figure out the product to this reaction.  Can anyone give me some insight? I've attached the reaction as well as the product that I predicted.

You are corect - with Wolff Kishner reduction of cetones you have selective hydrogenation of only the CO group and C=C stay unchanged...

IUPAC name should be 1-methyl-4-prop-1-en-2-yl-cyclohexane.
