        The concept they are closest to is "plaza"

        to have currency in Openstreetmap.



    place=square

    Needs to have a name, many of these have no names.



if these are significant open areas that are used for recreation and to meet each other, it seems improbable that they do not have names. Can you back your claim with real world examples?

place=square seems to fit the bill

place=square exists within the place=* hierarchy which , as documented in https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:place, is used to characterize named locations. What we tag here is almost always unnamed.

Our goal is to record the nature of that space - and most importantly its functionality as a common free space.


Note the statement "What we tag here is almost always unnamed." Fairly clear to me.


I also would not say 'used for recreation' as that may not be true in all situations.
