Following this thread. I have the same question, after recently moving the names that folks had added to the way (and bridge) segments, of a linear park spanning lower Michigan, to the relations representing the trail segment. The entire trail is known as " The Great Lake-to-Lake Trails" [image: relation] <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation> 7962984 <https://osm.org/relation/7962984>, whereas it has segments known by other names. For instance, 22 miles are also known as the "Mike Levine Lakelands Trail State Park" [image: relation] <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation> 272564 <https://osm.org/relation/272564>. I felt this was the most accurate way to map this trail. However, the temptation is strong to "map for the renderer", after seeing the trail names disappear from the rendered map <https://www.cyclosm.org/#map=13/42.4667/-84.0681/cyclosm>.
