[OSM-newbies] How do I break roads?

[John Buxton]

I last looked at openstreetmap years ago and have forgotten all I knew
then.
I have downloaded the latest version of JOSM and have managed to get the
data for my area with the intention of adding street names.
I have found that a lot of the roads shown as a way are in fact 2 or more
different roads so I need to break them where the name changes so I can add
the correct names, but can't work out how to do that.

How can I break the road sections  so I can add the names in either JOSM or
Potlatch?
