[Edit]See OP's code so far:

C#

public void fileMove(string folder)
       {
           const string destPath = "C:\\Optima\\Target\\";
           string[] folders = Directory.GetDirectories(folder);
           string[] destFolders = Directory.GetDirectories(destPath);

           foreach (string fArray in folders)
           {                                                // fArray
               DirectoryInfo folderInfo = new DirectoryInfo(folder);
                         FileInfo[] files = folderInfo.GetFiles("*.csv");

                        DirectoryInfo destFolderInfo = new DirectoryInfo(destPath);
                   foreach(FileInfo file in files){
             string fileName = Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(file.Name);
               if (Directory.Exists(destPath+fileName)){

                   string destFolder = destPath + fileName;
                   File.Move(folder + file, destPath + fileName);

                       }

                   else{
                                           Directory.CreateDirectory(destPath +fileName);
                                       }
                   }

                    fileMove(folderInfo.FullName);


           }
       }
   }

I find the File.Move usually helps move files around. What you mean by "i need to compare name" I have no idea.

Solution 1

Use System.IO.Path class, it has many methods to extract different parts of file name.
You can also use it to construct new path (destination) from parts extracted form source path.

Thank you and i know this command.

if my file name is Selin. I need to move folder of Selin.
if my file name is x . I need to move folder of x.

But i have a lot of folder and file. I have to use loop.
Please check my code.

C#

public static void fileMove(string folder)
       {
           string[] folders = Directory.GetDirectories(folder);
           foreach (string fArray in folders)
           {

               DirectoryInfo folderInfo = new DirectoryInfo(fArray);
               string[] files = Directory.GetFiles("*.csv", folderInfo.FullName);

              string[] destFolders = Directory.GetDirectories(@"C:\\Optima\\Target");

                foreach (string destFolderArray in destFolders)
               {
                    DirectoryInfo destFolderInfo = new DirectoryInfo(destFolderArray);

               }


               foreach( string file in files)
               {   FileInfo fileInfo = new FileInfo(file);

    }

               if (destFolderInfo.Name == fileInfo.Name){
                              File.Move(file, destFolder);
                                 }


               fileMove(folderInfo.FullName);

           }
       }
   }
