I'd say that a binding operation is that which binds an object to a name in a particular namespace. But I'd want to prefix the term "namespace" with an adjective to be precise. An object's attribute namespace, a module's namespace, etc.
What about elements of a list? Calling them a "list namespace" would be rather confusing...
