When creating an instance from a variable font, the name table is simply pruned of the dropped axes and named-instance names. However the default (legacy & preferred) style names, full name, postscript names are not updated accordingly.
The instancer should use the same names from one of the existing named instances, when the requested location matches exactly one of these.
Otherwise it should make these name up, preferably using the information present in the STAT table.

The instancer could use the styleName in the designspace and rebuilt the name table with it.
