Eh, [throw~] is many-to-one, not one-to-many...
Again, it is generally not good if a parameter can *only* be set via
creation arguments.
BTW, my personal workaround is to use [tabsend~] and [tabreceive~]. They
basically work the same way as [send~] and [receive~], but both objects
are settable :-) Also, they work at any block size.

so, [throw~] can set the destination, why not use it?

One concrete example: you have a modular system where the output
of an abstraction may be used by other abstractions, but they do
not know anything about each other. For this you might want to use
a [send~] and [receive~] objects where the names are chosen by the
user, e.g. with symbol atoms.
In general it's problematic if a parameter can only be set as a
creation argument because sometimes not everything is known at
creation time. This can be worked around with dynamic patching,
but as we know, this is not "officially" supported.
@Miller: a settable [send~] can be written easily, you just have
to call canvas_update_dsp() after changing the name. Of course,
this is not realtime-safe, but it's better than nothing.

I will check the ELSE options, thanks, all though it is the
sender that doesn’t offer option to change name.
For adding it to Vanilla version, Miller gave an answer,
which indicated there is not an easy way to do it, without
adding a block of delay. But nice to see that an issue has
been raised, mentioning it.
The issue on github is for an inlet to receive, not being able to
set send name in [send~].
I just need to be able to change the send~ name.
