Also, to maybe make a useful analogy, think about single player RPGs like the Final Fantasy series or Fallout or Morrowind or what have you. If you saw NPCs with cheeky names in those games you might get kind of irritated; you're trying to enjoy the world of the game, and these names break the fourth wall in a sense. It's like J.K. Rowling and her contrived character names, though she's not as bad an offender. The reasoning is similar for character names in MMORPGs.
