Perhaps in a few years time with a newer and far more powerful game engine.
In fact, some ships did leave their names visible but the practice was very rare and (certainly in the case of the major maritime powers) would have been in defiance of strict admiralty doctrine/orders, therefore only allowed if the Captain of the vessel wasn't opposed to the idea and the country of registry was invariably one of 'conveniance'.
