Can I make user unmentionable?

Is there a setting I could apply to a user that would make user unmentionable?

The reason is - we are primarily a physicla community with strict membership system (people need to pay fees). When people leave, we suspend them and od not delete them so their message history is preserved. I would like to remove them from the list of mentionable people, so people cannot mention them thinking they are still members. Is it possible?

Maybe add their name to Watched Words so it can’t be posted? There has to be a better way, though.

This is the best way I can think of this, similar to what Nate said.
