Hi,

I talked to John about this a couple of times and never ended up sending an email about it. sioc:name is redundant with foaf:name and does not really provide its own semantics compared to foaf:name. Why do we need it?

Steph.

Indeed, not sure if much needed, and both are datatype properties with
an open domain.

However, I'd then simply use rdfs:label rather than foaf:name
