Just because names can be faked, doesn't mean that everyone who should be doing it (which is everyone), will be doing it.
Some might misinterpret the sign-up process, thinking the name will only be used in special situations, others might think that they're thought of as weirdo, if they don't use their real name, when everyone else supposedly is.
And the last group simply does not understand, or does not think of the consequences of entering their real name. It's simply irresponsible to leave privacy and security entirely up to your users. Especially without any reason.
Pictures being potentially worse does not have anything to do with this being shit as well. Many potential stalkers don't know reverse image search either.
