WHAT IS A RING OF FIRE ECLIPSE?

No, the eclipse is not named after a Johnny Cash song, but the eclipse gets its name from how it looks. Since the moon is at the farthest point from the Earth, it can't totally block the sun so it looks like there is a ring of fire around the moon. That is just the parts of the sun that can't be blocked.
