Good catch! I've raised this with the Communication Working Group to see if we can improve how we communicate about memberships in future. Unfortunately as for why the form has a mandatory name field I'm unsure, you'd be best off contacting the Membership Working Group directly: membership@osmfoundation.org
@openstreetmap so will you be renaming the lake now?
The OpenStreetMap Foundation does not control OpenStreetMap, we don't decide on the names of lakes. OSMF is only here to support OSM not to control it. Our community are the ones who make these decisions. You can find out more here: https://community.openstreetmap.org/
