Does anyone think that due to how usernames work on the Fediverse, we might get some people using their real names as usernames? (kbin.social)

I'm thinking about how emails ended up becoming. Where our first email addresses were so wacky, and slowly we just wanted out real names.

The way I'd imagine official instance accounts working is the governments launching their own .gov instance and restricting accounts to only verified government officials, or corporations doing the same thing on their own official domains. Then their posts are federated to whoever wants to see them (or people can just go to the instance).
