name: name

name is one of the three relations for compounding in UD (together with compound and mwe). It is used for proper nouns constituted of multiple nominal elements. Words joined by name should all be part of a minimal noun phrase; otherwise, regular syntactic relations should be used.
In general, names are annotated in a flat, head-initial structure, in which all words in the name modify the first one using the name label.
