The naming of fonts is to serve as an unique identifier so that anything using that font, wherever it is, on whatever machine will be able to read and use it. By putting your own identifiers in place of the original would introduce numerous difficulties on your machine (software uses these names, even if in another code) and other computers would not be able to use them either.
