Comment:

 This has come up before. The visual editor separates anchors and links as
 the `name` attribute was formally deprecated in XHTML 1.0. In HTML 5.0
 this was "downgraded" to a recommendation to always use `ID` instead of
 `name`.

 Currently you can use an anchor followed by a link:
 {{{
 <a name="123"></a><a href="go-there">...</a>
 }}}
 which will work in exactly the same way.

 If you really need to still use <a name="..."> and have it act as a link
 too, perhaps open a ticket on TinyMCE's
 [http://www.tinymce.com/develop/bugtracker.php bug-tracker].
