What's the role of 名 in Xという名のならず者?


I just stumbled across an expression that basically goes like:

> X という名のならず者

(X being the name of a group of people in the story)

I can see what ならず者 means ("bandit", "scoundrel" according to
[this](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E3%81%AA%E3%82%89%E3%81%9A%E8%80%85))
and have a good guess of the general meaning of the sentence, but I have
trouble parsing the use of 名 here.

Is 名のならず者 a variant of ならず者, or is this a specific expression involving 名
itself?




名【な】 is "name", and Xという名の～ means "～ named X". This is a set expression.

> Xという名のならず者  
>  a rogue named X

名の人 doesn't make sense. 名のある人 (or 名がある人) is another set phrase meaning "famous
person".
