	grid-area: element name;
}

Example

Let's name and position our elements in the grid:

<div id="parent">
	<div id="elem1">1</div>
	<div id="elem2">2</div>
	<div id="elem3">3</div>
</div>

#elem1 {
	grid-area: first;
}
#elem2 {
	grid-area: second;
}
#elem3 {
	grid-area: third;
}
#parent {
	display: grid;
	grid-template-areas: 'third second first';
	border: 2px solid #696989;
	padding: 10px;

#parent > div {
	padding: 10px;
