I'd prefer #1. I think the two scenarios have entirely different user expectations. When you have just created a new element, the next likely thing for you to do is name it. The majority of the time that you select an existing element, you are going to be examining it and not changing the name. Having the name field selected is just going to lead to people accidently overwriting a name that they want to keep.
