Yes indeed. The names are relevant for communication (i.e. to become a part of a "discourse community" [1]), but are not indicative of one's competence at a topic. They kind of go hand in hand often due to arranged education, but that's not essential.
Names also come handy when you need to search for something and search engines are not powerful at taking your description of what you're searching for.
