+The `CLIENT SETNAME` command assigns a name to the current connection.
+
+The assigned name is displayed in the output of `CLIENT LIST` so that it is
+possible to identify the client that performed a given connection.
+
+For instance when Redis is used in order to implement a queue, producers and
+consumers of messages may want to set the name of the connection according to
+their role.
+
+There is no limit to the length of the name that can be assigned if not the
+usual limits of the Redis string type (512 MB). However it is not possible to
+use spaces in the connection name as this would violate the format of the
+`CLIENT LIST` reply.
+
+It is possible to entirely remove the connection name setting it to the empty
+string, that is not a valid connection name since it serves to this specific
+purpose.
+
+The connection name can be inspected using `CLIENT GETNAME`.
+
+Every new connection starts without an assigned name.
+
+Tip: setting names to connections is a good way to debug connection leaks due to
+bugs in the application using Redis.

+@simple-string-reply: `OK` if the connection name was successfully set.
