name is used for chemical names (formal and trivial) for molecules and also for identifiers such as CAS registry and RTECS. It can also be used for labelling atoms. It should be used in preference to the title attribute because it is repeatable and can be linked to a dictionary.

Constraining patterns can be described in the dictionary and used to validate names.
