I need a name

Does any spec give a name to the (namespace name, local name) pair that
identifies an element or attribute?  It's not a qualified name - that's
the string that appears in a document which is expanded into such a
pair by looking up the prefix or using the default namespace.

The Schema Datatypes spec views these pairs as the value space of
QNames (and the lexical space is QNames in the sense of the Namespaces
spec).  But that's hardly a handy name.
