Footnotes from Word to html to epub

I have a book created in Word 2000 with extensive footnotes. In html, the footnotes work fine. However, when the html is opened in Sigil, I get an error for each. Here is a sample footnote:

<a href="../Text/Section0013.HTM#_ftn4" name="_ftnref4" title="">[4]</a>

Flight Crew objects that "attribute 'name' is not declared for element 'a'"

If I change name to id in the case of footnote [1], Flight Crew raises no objection. Should I do this through all 169 footnotes?

Thank you!

In several places I found this:

XHTML Name attribute replacement

The name attribute within XHTML has been replaced with id for the following elements:

a
applet
frame
iframe
img
map

Example 9.1 Incorrect name attribute usage:

<img src="animage.gif" name="animage" />


Example 9.2 Correct name attribute replacement with the id attribute:

<img src="animage.gif" id="animage" />

I have made the substitution, and all is well!
