This option also changes the resource names so that the command:

xterm -name xclock

would match the following resources:

xclock*Background:		Blue
xclock*Foreground:		Red

instead of these:

xterm*Background:		Blue
xterm*Foreground:		Red

This is why ``title'' and ``name'' are seperate options, they really do
different things.
