How an I set a default Label value when binding its Content in WPF

I have a Label defined in XAML as follows:

<Label Content="{Binding Name}"></Label>

The problem is that the label is invisible in the XAML editor and I'd like it to have a default value there so that the editor accurately reflects what will show up at runtime.

Is there a way to give it a value in XAML which will show up in the editor, but then use the binding at runtime?

FallbackValue is the answer for the same

example

<Label Content="{Binding Name, FallbackValue=Default}"></Label>

You also assign the default value to name of its viewmodel.cs file in its constructor
