Good idea, but not with "etymology" as the name.

You have to keep in mind, though, that this information is not
strictly part of the geographical characteristics of the way/place,
I would even say that it has nothing to do with a geographic database.
OSM is NOT an encyclopedia. OSM is not a substitute of Wikipedia.
I think the intention was to record the specific words on the
street-sign rather than general encyclopaedic information about the
person who gave his name to the street. That could be legitimate for
OSM, do you agree?
