Those should go in addr:housename; StreetComplete correctly flags them as not having a number (or name) and will ask to fill them.

Hi Rob,
Looks fairly comprehensive. My comment is that there is no mention of the
name tag. Although not an addr: tag, this often holds the name of a
building, and I feel some mention should be made about it. All the houses
near where I live have house names and no numbers; the names have been
generally captured in the name field unless the building has some extra tag
such as shop=*.
Cheers,
Mike
