Iterating over array of objects using forEach

Trying to return a new array of objects that have the name and index from the original array. The solution should be as follows:

[{name: 'Jane', index: 1}, {name: 'mark', index: 3}, {name: 'sophia', index: 4}]

--

let array = [
        {a: 2},
        {name: "jane"},
        {},
        {name: 'mark'},
        {name: 'sophia'},
        {b: 1}
    ]

function somefunction (somearr) {
    newarray = [];
    somearr.forEach(element, index => {
        if (element.name != null) {
            let newobj = {}
            newobject.name = element.name
            newobject.index = index
            newarray.push(newobj)
        }
    })
    console.log(newarray)
}

somefunction(array)

I am getting the following error:

Process exited with code 1
Uncaught ReferenceError ReferenceError: element is not defined
