Do you think that the map can or shouldn't be given a `name`
tag<br>
repeating the name of the park, town, trail etc.?<br>

<div>No. The wording on the sign/map board is not the "name"
of the sign/map board, it may be the name of a park, etc.,
or it could be a greeting "Welcome to ABC National Park", or
other information. </div>

<p>This makes sense to me. I have used name= for maps a few times
too because I didn't think about it and because JOSM has it in the
preset. But this and the referenced discussions (especially this
reply: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/tagging/2021-January/059087.html">https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/tagging/2021-January/059087.html</a>)
have convinced me so far that some other title tag would be more
appropriate. iD does not have "name" in the preset for maps; and
for information boards in <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://github.com/openstreetmap/id-tagging-schema/issues/64">https://github.com/openstreetmap/id-tagging-schema/issues/64</a>
it was asked to substitute "name" by "board:title" (without
response yet).</p>
