Changeset: 53836197
Everyone knows this street as 'Garden Street'. I changed the name to "Wasfi al-Tal Street | Garden Street". Please advise if there is a field for "common name" or similar that would show up in the map.

There are several ways to do this. I am not entirely sure which one is best, or if there's even an agreement on which one is best. See: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:name
.
Option 1: name=Garden..., alt_name=wasfi....
.
Option 2: name=Garden..., official_name=wasfi.... (undocumented for non countries but makes sense)
.
Option 3: name=wasfi..., loc_name=garden street.

I would personally keep the "name" as the most commonly used name, regardless.
