Have a look at msdn documentation on this here[^]. Scroll down towards the end of the page and you will find it.

Solution 1

Have a look at these discussion links for the same:
Similar discussion 1[^]
Similar discussion 2[^]
Similar discussion 3[^]

They say:
There is basically no difference between the two. Name is a shorthand for x:Name and you only really need x:Name when Name is ambiguous.
