depending on the context. Names are interpretations of the notes and
always depend on the context. Your chords in the posting
<c d f bf> be labelled as Bb/C or C7(sus2,sus4)
Bb/C is built of C Bb D F
C7(sus2) C D G A#
C7(sus4) C F G A#
you mention are different.
May be you did a typing error, then
<c d f bb>
makes Bb/C or Dm7#5/C again an ambiguity
You never get correct chord names without knowing the context - that is
one will learn in the basic lessons any jazz school or jazz academy etc.
To find the fitting context you need a kind of artificial intelligaence
or knowledge base or a composers analyst tool ...
My 2 cts to the topic just beside of personal preferences of the chord
name layout, position etc.
