% session_name really used for?
Uttam's answer is technically correct, but it may not really provide the
info you seek. [That's not meant as a slight upon Uttam, of course; it's
a very good and thorough answer.]
It's a way to name your session, and in particular it's what people will
see when their browser says "this site would like to set a cookie" or
when they peruse their cookie collections. It can be a way to better
identify yourself -- particularly for those cases where the visitor might
accept the cookie or might not.
