|func_footnote='''id''' must specify a valid rezzed prim or avatar key, present in or otherwise known to the sim in which the script is running, otherwise an empty string is returned. In the case of an avatar, this function will still return a valid name if the avatar is a child agent of the sim (i.e., in an adjacent sim, but presently able to see into the one the script is in), or for a short period after the avatar leaves the sim (specifically, when the client completely disconnects from the sim, either as a main or child agent).<br /><br />
Keys of inventory items will not work; in the case of these, use [[llGetInventoryName]] instead.
|func_desc
|return_text=that is the {{LSLGC|Avatar/Name|legacy name}} of the prim or avatar specified by '''id'''.
|spec
|caveats=* It is difficult to tell the difference between a prim that has a name that is an empty string and a prim that is not in the sim, or because an invalid key was specified. Use [[llGetObjectDetails]] to avoid this problem.
* To get around the "avatar must be present" limitation, you can use the [[llRequestAgentData]] function and the [[dataserver]] event to obtain the avatar's name from a key.
* There is no opposite function ([[llName2Key]]) available. However, there are third-party websites which can be queried using the [[llHTTPRequest]] function and the [[http_response]] event.
* If an avatar is "ghosted" (which occasionally happens due to a longstanding server bug), an empty string is returned even though the avatar is seemingly present and shows up in [[llSensor]] and the [[Mini-Map]].  This fact can be used as the basis of a [[Ghost Detector]] script.
