[MC-270006] Can't give item with item_name component set to "null"

When trying to give yourself an item with the item_name component set to "null" you instead get an error

Malformed 'minecraft:item_name' component: 'Not a JSON object: null; Not a json array: null; Not a string: null'

Command:

/give @p minecraft:breeze_rod[minecraft:item_name="null"]

Can confirm, though this can be circumvented by altering the command:

/give @p stick[minecraft:item_name='{"text":"null"}']

Also affects the custom_name component.

Thank you for your report!
After consideration, the issue is being closed as Invalid.

The error message is correct - "null" is not a correct stringified component. "'null'" or "\"null\"" would be.

I see, thanks for explaining
