Maybe it should be both. The "name" is more the thing people use when
they talk about an object, the "ref" is more a unique identifier in some
abstract naming scheme. Could be the ref is "21234 A" for platform A of
the bus stop 21234. The name would still be "Platform A" if thats whats
shown on the sign. I think we have to leave this for the mappers to
decide, naming and unique numbers are just too different in different
PT systems.
