-1, the name is the name of the tagged feature, if there is a building with
a POI in it and you want to do it cleanly, you should seperate the two into
different objects (a building and a POI in it) so you can give each of them
their name unambigously. If you have a building without a name you can also
lazily mix them up, but I'd always see this as an interim solution, because
there will probably be more properties which will (when more detail is
tagged) have to be associated just to one of the two, e.g. start_date,
wikipedia, operator, ...

cheers,
Martin
