I see -name well documented in section "2.3.1 Base Name Patterns":

  
https://www.gnu.org/software/findutils/manual/html_mono/find.html#Base-Name-Patterns

The navigation structure isn't that bad either IMO:

  2 Finding Files
    2.1 find Expressions
    2.2 Starting points
    2.3 Name
        2.3.1 Base Name Patterns  <-- -name
        ...

One can find the -name option also via the INDEX:

Have a nice day,
