It's all in context though. If my brother was killed by falling off a cliff then I might find a user playing under the perfectly harmless name of "Cliff" traumatizing, but that doesn't mean they should be stopped from using it...
I do think respect needs to be given, but I also think you have to just not give a toss, there are many spastics online.
Also there are players with names suck as "f**kjesus" which is horridly offensive to some, while others don't even give a toss. I saw a muslim player pleading with another player to change their name from allah to something else, while not offensive to some, it is shocking to others.
It is all relative to the experiences you've had in life, so I think it's unfair to judge somebody on the name they use online.
*hopes he made sense*
