I was aware of node-fn-name at the time I uploaded node-fn.name.
However, due to my lack of experience with NodeJS I did not compare the
packages to understand the difference of their APIs and functionality. I
would love to deduplicate (maybe by removing node-fn.name which should
have less reverse dependencies), but I need someone to confirm that
these packages could be used interchangeably, or provide patching
suggestions if APIs are different.

Best,
Andrius
