If I recall correctly, Garmins don't use the road name for links. Instead they use the name of the first non-link road, i.e. where the link leads to. So the first bit of the exit ramp stays as a link (road type 0x08 or 0x09), and a short bit in the middle gets the destination as a name, so the GPS will announce "take exit to Mytown". There may be more to it, but that is how I think it works.
