IRI

No response

Label

legal name

Definition of the property

A synonym that is the legal entity name

Parent property

http://www.geneontology.org/formats/oboInOwl#SynonymType

What is the range of the property in question?

xsd:string

Examples of use

The legal name for Harvard University (https://ror.org/03vek6s52) is President and Fellows of Harvard College

Motivation to add

ROR has a complicated data model that has a specific field for legal names. It wants to combine all synonyms into a single field, but still annotate what kind of synonym is each. This property would enable this.

ORCID, ROR or Wikidata identifier of the contributor
