When adding road names from OS Locator I use the suggested values from here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Ordnance_Survey_Opendata#Attribut ing_OS which are OS_OpenData_StreetView, OS_OpenData_Locator and the like. To see all the different values that begin OS or os (and I know there are values which are in the format "<something>;OS%" look at http://taginfo.openstreetmap.de/keys/?key=source#values then sort by value (ascending) with 15 items per page and look at roughly pages 481 to 512 (for OS...) and 1818 to 1824 (for os...)
