Construct a new NameError exception. If given the name parameter may subsequently be examined using the NameError#name method. receiver parameter allows to pass object in context of which the error happened. Example:
Example
[1, 2, 3].method(:rject) # NameError with name "rject" and receiver: Array [1, 2, 3].singleton_method(:rject) # NameError with name "rject" and receiver: [1, 2, 3]
