What is the purpose of the #name method in the system?
How integral/important is this method and what are the dangers of overriding it?

I am getting tired of auto creating accessors and getting a #name1 method due to a clash that I happened to very commonly have 'name' as an instance variable. I have so far been changing my 'name' instance variables to 'myName' to avoid the clash because I am not comfortable with my understanding of how it ties in - but its time I tried harder to understand.

cheers -ben
