This key indicates the source used to determine the feature's name. Use this key in addition to source=* when the feature overall was mapped according to one source but the name=* was mapped according to a different or more specific source.
Note that OpenHistoricalMap uses *:source=* as a suffix, contrary to OpenStreetMap's use of source:*=* as a prefix. In OHM, the source:name=* key merely indicates the name of the overall feature's source.
Examples
name=Hoboken Elementary
name:source=Hoboken School marker 1999name=Rancho San Pedro, Santa Margarita y Las Gallinas
name:source=USGS San Quentin 7.5 minute Quadrangle
