A lot of big name people will add small notes about important announcements to their display names (new book out, stuff like that) so preventing name changes entirely would be very unpopular.

- snowwrestler 4y agoChanging the visible display name frequently is a significant part of Twitter culture. In a few weeks, tons of people will change their name to a “spooky” version for Halloween, for example. It’s not a feature Twitter will kill just because of a few scammers.
