   name
      A name is an alphanumeric identifier associated with the named

      address.

We're on the Internet.  We're doing email.  Me thinks the context
in which the name is used, is quite clear.  sokol is not unique.
sokol.elan.net is (or at least should be).

See also RFC 2821, section 2.3.5 and understand "sokol" is a local alias.
