Hi guys, For establishments that have a branch name (like banks), put the branch name into the branch tag instead of stuffing it into the name tag.
For example, the Bank of Commerce located near the San Miguel Corporation HQ in Ortigas is this node: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/747625995 It currently has the following tags: amenity=bank name=Bank of Commerce branch=San Miguel atm=yes Please only put the official branch name into this tag. Don't invent a branch name. For banks, you can often find the branch name prominently displayed on the bank's banner signboard (BPI, BDO, RCBC, Metrobank do this). Sometimes the branch name is on the small overhead sign that are perpendicular to the street. In others, the branch name is printed on the door. Another acceptable source is to go to the bank's official website and find their list of branches page. This branch tag is currently being used in the OSM-PH Garmin map to create labels like "<name> (<branch>)".
