Use of name element in first guide #13

Description

As discussed on w3c/csvw#905 the use of the name element on a column is valid according to the standard. From my perspective it is however not a very common use case, most of the csv on the web does have a header row, and thus the titles element, to match the metadata to a column , is much more common than the name element.

As discussed in the above issue we were (due to bad reading) put on a incorrect path of expecting the name property to be the column header (and the titles a human friendly multilingual representation of the header)

Suggestion would be to add also an example in this guide with header row and use of the titles element.

I can propose it in a PR, if you think makes sense. Thanx for csvw.org initiative
