Proposed resolution (approved by CWG 2026-03-06):

Change in 6.1 [basic.pre] paragraph 3 as follows and add bullets:

A name is
Date: 2025-11-06.23:04:52

(From submission #673.)

Subclause 6.1 [basic.pre] paragraph 3 specifies:

A name is an identifier (5.11 [lex.name]), conversion-function-id (11.4.8.3 [class.conv.fct]), operator-function-id (12.4 [over.oper]), or literal-operator-id (12.6 [over.literal]).

That seems to incorrectly include identifier labels per the grammar in 8.2 [stmt.label] paragraph 1 as well as attributes per the grammar in 9.13.1 [dcl.attr.grammar] paragraph 1.
