As per our rules in the kernel, we can not accept a signed-off-by by a
known anonymous person.  When you can obviously see that the name is
incorrect (as has happened recently with different names being used for
the from: and the s-o-b lines in the email address), you have to ask for
clarification.  It's something that all maintainers should be doing.

I would love for people to use their names in their native language,
there's no need to make up english-sounding names at all.  We have many
examples of this in commits already, I would be happy if we get more.

And yes, validating names in those languages is usually not very
difficult.
