That's ok. I don't need to have fullscreen, window is fine, but the option should be there (in a later version).


You could display the name in the colored player score panel.
In Trackmania, by pressing a key you can toggle whether or not you want to see players' names above their heads.
In Halo, you can choose a secondary short nick name (don't know the right word, sorry), consisting of 2 letters and 2 digits, f.i. KU77. That short (!) name is displayed above every player's head (only when you get close to someone you can see their full name, too). The advantage would be that players could change their nick afterwards.
