Replace placeholder "name" with "subject"
The `{{name}}` placeholder could represent different things depending on
the state of the Result, and referring to it as `{{name}}` seems
arbitrary. This commit changes it to `{{subject}}`, which is much more
generic and it describes well what that placeholder can mean.
