Thanks I'll do it this way then, this actually works and even gets rendered, although with OSM-Carto it becomes a name tag in each separate part so not exactly beautiful, but the data is there.

belonging to the same wetlands the same,

That is widely considered to be the correct way.  It is established
practice that mapping things like forest, wetland, farmland etc. can
be split to differentiate tagging (like leaf_type, wetland type, crop
etc.).  The name tag is then applied to all components.  Same as for
waterways or roads where you can also split and apply the name to the
components.

This also matches the general concept in OSM that names are typically
local properties and only locally verifiable.  The Rhine river is
called Rhein in Koblenz but Rhin in Strasbourg and Rijn in Rotterdam.
