How to copy a name of a backlink/node with context menu?

Now you have a note like the following:

[[created note]] points to a note that existed
[[not created note]] points to a note that has not been created yet.

Similar issue is seen in the graph view that I don’t know how to copy the name of a node within a graph as the context menu does not have an option for that.

I don’t know if I missed something or is this a new feature?
