I am happy either way, since the sentence is not that formal I saw no reason to 
over-egg the correctness, and I preferred some slight readability: I see the 
matter as editorial, and not one I am that concerned with.
I think your "each" is a clear improvement.

Since the term "refer" is not formally defined, the proposal does not suggest 
that graph names should not "refer" to graphs, just as it does not suggest that 
graph names should not refer to persons, or to types of cheese.
So I believe you are misreading the intent here: the intent is to suggest 
formal semantics which strongly suggests my preferred informal semantics, but 
does not rule out other people's preferred informal semantics.
