I have in the past done some using place-name, but have now corrected them.
But I still do not see rendered
place=hamlet
name=Avoncliff

The wiki page still says the place tag should not be used on nodes,

May apply to:

    * <node>s: No (use name="xyz" on the node instead)

And it says it should be used on ways, which looks odd to me.
