 Name is not the same as label. Name is an internal property of the control
and is currently hardly used at all. The label is what the control displays
on screen. Except that wxBitmapButton doesn't actually display any label
neither because it displays a bitmap. But to set label of e.g. a button you
can use SetLabel().
