I think you mean [1] and [3] in the above, and I agree, these could
easily be the same term and "name" has a nice generality to it.
Although it is unintuitive in the case of un-named data, e.g.,
#+name:
| 1 |
| 2 |
| 3 |
looks weird to me.

assuming you mean [2] above, I think call is emerging as the clear
winner in this case.
