If there is no street sign then tag unsigned=yes.  (You can do that even if the
road has a name added from other sources.)  If it definitely doesn't have a name,
tag noname=yes.  In city areas, where almost every street is named, you might add
a note tag explaining why this one isn't.

Conventionally, roads tagged as highway=service don't show up on noname checks,
so it is not necessary to tag noname=yes on each of them.  For service roads
being named is the exception.
