These are called Direct Object and Indirect object pronouns.
Direct Object Pronouns are used in place of direct objects.
For each pronoun,
Yo - me
Tú - te
Él - lo (le in Spain)
Ella - la
Usted - lo/la
Nosotros - nos
Vosotros - os
Ellos - los (les in Spain)
Ellas - las
Ustedes - los/las
---
I want to meet her -> Quiero conocerla (or "La quiero conocer")
I ate it. -> Lo comí.
I have read it (the card) -> La he leído.
---
Then we have Indirect Object Pronouns which are used for Indirect objects.
They're almost the same as the DOP.
Yo - me
Tú - te
Él/Ella/Usted - le
Nosotros - nos
Vosotros - os
Ellos/Ellas/Ustedes - Les

I gave him the gift - Le di el regalo [a él]
I gave her the gift - Le di el regalo [a ella]
Send me a message - Mándame un mensaje.

I hope you got it.

te - form of you.
lo - him.
la - her.
le - to him, to her.
Quiero verte. I want to see you.
Te veo. I see you.
Quiero verlo. I want to see him.
Lo veo. I see him.
Quiero verla. I want to see her.
La veo. I see her.
But it's just part of all variations E.g.
Te llamas Timothy. Here is te again.
Very big question.

Agregaré algo más a las respuestas anteriores.
Estos pronombres van antes de un verbo o después de los verbos infinitivos, imperativos y gerundios en forma de sufijo, para indicar a quién o qué va dirigido el verbo y reemplazan al objeto directo. Se utilizan mucho para evitar la repetición del objeto directo:
- Voy a comer pescado = I'll eat fish (infinitive form + direct object)
- Voy a comerlo = I'll eat it! (infinitive form + pronoun)
- Lo comeré = I'll eat it! (future form + pronoun)
Normalmente los utilizas cuando ya has mencionado al objeto directo o ya se sabe de qué estás hablando.
