Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/9985

What is the issue?

When using the Ollama API via Docker, the documentation states that the /api/tags endpoint should return a list of models with a name field. However, in practice, the response uses model instead of name, as observed in the Docker implementation. This inconsistency breaks compatibility with the official documentation and causes confusion.

Relevant log output

docker run -d -p 11434:11434 ollama/ollama 

curl http://localhost:11434/api/tags  

{  
  "models": [  
    {  
      "model": "llama2:latest",   
      "modified_at": "2023-11-04T14:56:49.277302595-07:00",  
      "size": 7365960935,  
      "digest": "9f438cb9cd581fc025612d27f7c1a6669ff83a8bb0ed86c94fcf4c5440555697",
