Name is set on the metadata, so:
```const openfaasNamespace = new k8s.core.v1.Namespace("openfaas-fn", {
  metadata: {
      name: "openfaas-fn"
   }
}, { provider: k8sProvider });```

Thanks a lot for helping me. I just installed openfaas for lambda function in digitalocean using pulumi. Also its not mentioned to use metadata for name in pulumi docs.

names in metadata are a k8s thing, not pulumi per se

<@U01G51145NH> I read this docs and I was following this <https://www.pulumi.com/registry/packages/kubernetes/api-docs/core/v1/namespace/#objectmeta> but its taking name directly

? kinda what I was thinking, they refer you to k8s docs

<@U01G51145NH> yes, I am able to pass the namespace value using metadata.name, but also for name without suffix, I have to use the same, which is missing in the docs. Should I create an issue for it, if I am right ?

can't hurt :slightly_smiling_face:, you're right that's an important detail when they must match

Thanks, I will raise an issue in the docs now.
