By "names" do you mean relationship terms in $e?  Or do you mean the
name of the person, family, or corporate body in $a?  The context
would seem to suggest you mean relationship terms.  Wouldn't be be
less confusing to call them that?

I do like talking in unambiguous MARC field and subfield codes!  The
ambiguity of language, and reuse of terms with new meanings, creates
roblems.
