Good point.
Of course, the magnitude of the events that cause the awarding of a Name varies considerably depending on the recipient's age. Yayoi had to fly dozens of rescue missions before getting her Name, while at-GC-launch Luna Schroeck would have only needed to save a few kittens... but Luna would have had to show by her deeds that she would continue in the proud tradition before getting a Name.
(And since I'm mentioning rescues instead of violence, obviously "swift and sure in battle" can apply to battling Uncaring Nature as well as battling other people.)
