I would put it in the description tag
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:description
eg
name = Henri Farmanstraat
description = Luchthavenpionier, 1874-1958
If existant, you could add an Wikipedia link
wikipedia = en:Henri_Farman
Most people and locations have a page on a website (to be used with the
url tag) or blog from a cultural or historic associaton :
eg
http://www.bloggen.be/huldenberg/archief.php?ID=74
could be added for De Tomme
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/83210315
Regards,
Gerard.

So many streets are named after mayors. Most of those won't have a
dedicated Wikipedia page.

Een wikipedia tag bestaat reeds.
Alle info over de combinatie van wikipedia en openstreetmap vind
je hier: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Wikipedia
Ik zou die specifieke informatie niet toevoegen, maar wel dan de
link naar de wikipedia pagina voor die persoon.
Groeten,
Johan

In Gent I find the following in the name tags:
Henri Farmanstraat ((Luchthavenpionier, 1874-1958))
Vincent Evrardlaan ((Oud burgemeester van Gentbrugge, 1896-1995))
Guido Gezelle straat ((Dichter, 1830-1899))
Interesting information, but technically not really part of the
name of the street. (Nobody will add that as part of an addres).
Still, I also already wanted to be able to add this information.
Can this information be stored in a name:etymology-tag? And while
we're at it, we may be able to add a link to Wikipedia as well?
name:wikipedia=nl:Guido Gezelle
What do you think?
mvg,
Jo
