*commonName should have attribute xml:lang instead of language
*otherNames is not useful as is. It was intended to capture different name components required by a jurisdiction which are not covered by the other (non-commonName) sub-elements. In order to meet this, it should have an attribute to such as @component similar to how an addressLine is handled.

Ideally we could find an existing standard to adopt, but I haven't found anything yet.

Dublin core has some interesting discussion:

(About to be) submitted as CP. The demographic/name now has an attribute @xml:lang, the attribute demographic/name/commonName/@language has been removed, the element demographic/name/otherNames has been renamed to otherName and its type changed from xs:string to csd:codedtype
