Rather odd to describe using a declare block to declare a string object
only in a "severe jam," since this is the normal, intended usage!

   declare
      Name : constant String := Get_Name (File);
   begin
   ...


Or

   declare
      Name : String := Get_Name (File);
   begin
      Make_Uppercase (Name);
      ...
