Is "name" a supported parameter for tool messages?

API
1

The tool/function-calling cookbook includes a "name" parameter in a message with role "tool":

messages.append({
    "role":"tool", 
    "tool_call_id":tool_call_id, 
    "name": tool_function_name, 
    "content":results
})

However, the API reference for tool messages indicates that the supported properties are “role”, “content”, and “tool_call_id”.

Should developers expect “name” to be a supported parameter for tool messages?
