+Set the name of the manual page to I<name>.  Without this option, the manual
+name is set to the uppercased base name of the file being converted unless
+the manual section is 3, in which case the path is parsed to see if it is a
+Perl module path.  If it is, a path like C<.../lib/Pod/Man.pm> is converted
+into a name like C<Pod::Man>.  This option, if given, overrides any
+automatic determination of the name.
+
+Note that this option is probably not useful when converting multiple POD
+files at once.  The convention for Unix man pages for commands is for the
+man page title to be in all-uppercase even if the command isn't.
