bq. you could say : if ( name != tag ) { ln -s name tag ; }

Yes. I wrote
bq. (if carefully done)
That phrase covers the above as well as 'ln -s display_name.html tag'

bq.  All names are uppercase-first (or you can make them so)
I'm afraid that argument does not hold, as the correct capitalisation of the names is vital for the links to function as designed.
[Also in the general case you cannot assume that changing the capitalisation of a name will still be unique.]

Whereas no tags end with '.html' so the following should always work:
{code}
ln -s display_name.html tag
{code}

I've not seen any objections to that, so let's try it.
