AccessToken.getCurrentAccessToken(),
"/me/friend",
null,
HttpMethod.GET,
new GraphRequest.Callback() {
    public void onCompleted(GraphResponse response) {
        /* handle the result */
    }

I am not getting friend list with name, if you have any idea than plz give me. Thanks in Advance.

Facebook only returns the list of those friends who have authorized your app. So its necessary that for each friend your app is installed. — Skynet, Dec 22 '15 at 12:15

I got solutions for using this

new GraphRequest(
            AccessToken.getCurrentAccessToken(),
            "/me/taggable_friends",
            null,
            HttpMethod.GET,
            new GraphRequest.Callback() {
                public void onCompleted(GraphResponse response) {
                    Log.e("getFriendsDat",""+ response);
                }
            }
    ).executeAsync();

You will get friend list with name and detail.
you have to add user_friends permission and need to submit your app for review.

First of all, it´s /me/friends, not /me/friend. That being said, you can only get access to friends who authorized your App too, with the user_friends permission. The response means that you have 3 friends, but none of them authorized your App with user_friends.

If any friend authorized my app than i get his name? – Mohit Suthar Dec 22 '15 at 12:54
as you can read in my answer, a friend has to authorize your app with user_friends – andyrandy Dec 22 '15 at 13:29
