Can you "vulgarity" someone just for having a damn stupid name...?

There are some really ridiculous names around the place... eg:

Sir welcome to oblivion

Sir Blood Haze and Sir NGuts Haze

Sir END ENDperor

The DUNIDIE family - including Coffin Man DUNIDIE, and previously Sir 
FALSE OF DOOM DUNIDIE, Sir SUICIDE DUNIDIE, Sir Retsnom DUNIDIE

Sir Suffer Not Injustice Vimes

Sir ]-[edon Reapers


And so on.  These are just a few that I've noticed recently, of varying 
strangeness.  Seriously, Sir welcome to oblivion?!  I want to be able to 
click on a vulgarity option the instant my message says that welcome to 
oblivion is starting his career today.  Surely anyone with such a 
ridiculous name should lose honour just for that.

After all, how much respect would you have when you met my friends down 
the pub, and found they were called Cuddles Flipflop, Easy Shoelace and 
Ilove ManU.  I'd not have a lot of respect for the whole family of 
someone who had been named Ilove ManU, and could you seriously see 
Cuddles Flipflop, President of the USA, ever happening?  It's possible, 
I guess, but you'd have a lot of work to do overcoming the fact that 
your name was ridiculous.
