How to target a entity by it's name Minecraft Bedrock?
I am trying to target a entity by its name. Here is the command I a, using:
execute @e[type=fishing_hook,name=kill] ~~~ kill @e. My problem is, I got the fishing hook named to 'kill', but this does nothing. If I remove the name=kill it works as expected, anyone know how to select a entity by its name in Minecraft Bedrock?

However, and unfortunately, the fishing hook can't be given or summoned in Minecraft: Bedrock Edition , and as a result, cannot be named since these are the only commands in Bedrock Edition that enable us to give names to entities.
