In any legal proceeding (claim, application, etc.), it is important to indicate precisely (designate) who are the parties involved, that is:
AND
Certain claims may even have more than one claimant or defendant, all of whom must be designated correctly.
If a party is designated incorrectly, the case may be postponed (for example, to allow time to make the necessary corrections and take action against the correct individuals) or the claim may even be rejected.
If an incorrect designation is copied in a decision, this could also prevent the decision from being executed. Then you would have to start the whole process again.
The following table should make things clearer for you.
one or more individuals:
Full first name and surname of each person.
For a married woman, her surname at birth.
Robert Duval
Jennifer Ackerman

First name and surname of the person.
These may be followed by the business name.
Joyce Casper or Joyce Casper doing business under the name of Casper Apartments.
a general partnership:
All the partners must sign or they may appoint a representative by proxy.
For the claimant, just the name of the company followed by the words "and Co." is sufficient.
For the defendant, indicate the name of the company or, if there is some question about its solvency, it may be followed by the names of the partners held jointly responsible.
