# name

> Reference name for the view, implicit in the file name.

This parameter is how the view and the fields it contains are referenced, independent of the labels applied.

<Note>
  View names are automatically generated from database table names. The naming convention can be affected by your connection's [**Always Scope View Names**](/connect-data/view-name-generation) setting, which controls whether catalog and schema prefixes are included.
</Note>

## Syntax

```yaml theme={null}
# Reference this view as view_file_name
```

## Properties

<ParamField path="name" type="string">
  The name used to reference the view, derived from the file name. Cannot be explicitly set in the file.
</ParamField>

## Examples

In this example, if the file is named `ecomm__users.view`, the view will be referenced as `ecomm__users`, regardless of the `label` parameter.

```yaml title="View name from file name" theme={null}
# Reference this view as ecomm__users
schema: Ecomm
table: Users
label: Users With Orders
```
