How do you type names on photos?
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
That is not a feature of iPhoto - suggest to Apple - iPhoto Menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback.
Preview can annotate photos and can be set as an external editor - lots of other editors can do it

Larry, do you know how to do this annotation?
Any of these apps can be used to add text to a photo as well as Preview.
Some Image Editors That Support layers:
Photoshop Elements 11 for Mac - $79Rainbow Painter - $30
Imagerie - $38
Acorn - $50
Pixelmator - $60
Seashore - Free
GIMP for Mac - Free
Xee 2.1 - free
Also any watermarking app can do the job also. Go to MacUpdate.com and search for "watermark".

Thank you very much Toad--I appreciate all of your information! Have a good day!
Yes - as noted use the annotate feature of preview -
you can either
1 - set preview as teh external editor and use it to edit directly form iphoto
or 2 - export the photo, Open it in preview, use preview to edit it and then import the photos into iPhoto
In either case once the photo is open in preview use the Tool menu ==> annontate ==> text and dra a text box wherer you want the text and type it then save the photo
