I thought the same thing, but you have to think about applying 2D text over a model. The interface and UI system is something different than the game, it’s almost like an overlay. To attach that to a person is very difficult. I’m sure it can be done, just one of the coding wizards will be frustrated on working it into the game.
Also, how cool would it be to have the name of your city over your banner. Just so you know where your main city is., I’m sure the banner will become something else in the future but for now it stands as the epicenter of most settlements.
