Short answer is yes. All attributes got removed from all elements which are not valid for that specific eleent. "name" is one of these examples, which is not a valid attribute for link.
Starting from Watir 3, "name" is only valid attribute for these elements: button; fieldset; input; keygen; output; select; textarea; form; iframe; object; map; meta; param.
