'''Caveats''' <br>
• The prim name attribute is limited to 63 bytes, any string longer then that will be truncated. This truncation does not always happen when the attribute is set or read.  <br> <br>
'''Examples''' <br>
Listen on channel 10 for a name; check if a prim with that name is part of this object <br>
{|border="1" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0"
|<source lang="lsl">
integer check_for_prim(string name)
{
    integer i = llGetNumberOfPrims();

        if (llGetLinkName(i) == name)
        {
            return TRUE;
        }
    }
