Testimonial quotes and how to mark them up

Hi all,

Do any of you have any thoughts on how to mark up short testimonial
quotes using HTML5? I want some way to associate the quote and the
name of the person who made it, but <blockquote> seems like overkill
and the <q> tag doesn't have any attributes to hook it to the quoter's
name.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Cheers, Lynn
