Dutch term or phrase: naambordje
Het gaat om naambordjes op conferenties e.d. die voor de personen op tafel staan. Ik twijfel of dat wel nameplate moet zijn.

Ik geef zelf toch de voorkeur aan "nameplate" want "nameplate holder" lijkt meer over de houder te gaan, waar het bordje nog ingeschoven dient te worden.
