No, the name problem is simply solved with a multipolygon or site
relation if needed. This way we still have one single object.

It is still a forest even if there are no trees atm. Please use
landcover=* to add this information. Or exclude the area if permanent.

One more option would be to use place=locality or even place=forest with
the name
