It start's on page 28 of the MS fatgen103 document:

"As a consequence of this pairing, the short directory entry serves as the
structure that contains fields like: last access date, creation time,
creation date, first cluster, and size.  It also holds a name that is
visible on previous versions of MS-DOS/Windows.  The long directory entries
are free to contain new information and need not replicate information
already available in the short entry.  Principally, the long entries contain
the long name of a file.  The name contained in a short entry which is
associated with a set of long entries is termed the alias name, or simply
alias, of the file."
