    NAME is an attribute of an occurrence that is a string of ASCII
    characters which identifies symbols in your source code. A
    specific name can be associated with more than one symbol.

    The language you are using defines the legal characters for
    a name. Each name has zero or more characters. Any character
    may appear in a name. Special characters that appear in a name
    must be quoted using double quotes. You do not need to quote the
    following: $, _, *, %, &, -, alphanumeric characters.

    You can use wildcards (* and %) in the name expression. You can
    override the wildcard characters by using the escape character
    (&). For example, you can find the name consisting of a single
    asterisk using the name expression &*. If you want an ampersand in
    a string, you must use two successive ampersands.

    The format for NAME can be one of the following:

    name
    NAME=(name[,name...])
