Hiding usernames from UX

If you disable the “enable names” feature, they won’t have names, just usernames. You’d have to settle for _ rather than space.

Or you could write a custom plugin to do what you think you want.

If you don’t disable them as I suggest, you could hide the name changing stuff with CSS and have a community rule that if they changed their name (by un-hiding the CSS in their browser) that they would be appropriately punished.
