I can't tell if they're real names or invented names. if the inhabitants of the place call this fountain by this name, it seems to me a local but real name and which in its place in name=* On the other hand if the name only describes the object, it is not a name=* but a description=* it's a bit like amenity=post_office name=Post :-(
Maybe people are talking for example about the fountain on the corner of Lorrainestrasse and Schulweg, but not about the corner-of-Lorrainestrasse-and-Schulweg fountain (https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/5562045081). Even the inventory linked in the note tag doesn't mention any name.
