xs:NCName
The letters NC in NCName stand for noncolonized. The type xs:NCName can be used to represent the local part of names, or even prefixes. An xs:NCName value must start with a letter and underscore (_), and may contain only letters, digits, underscores, hyphens, and periods.
Because xs:NCName is ultimately derived from xs:string, xs:NCName values can be compared and used like strings.
