Although I've said that I see no need to support nicknames, I also see no need to go ahead and remove them since people like them. This is the correct, truly wiki solution -- we only need to achieve consensus that confusing nicks are not allowed (as Kibo would say), and people power can go into action fearlessly. I suspect that this consenus is here.
Anthère's problem is slightly more complicated, since she also needs to have [[Utilisateur:Anthère]] forbidden once she's created her own account [[Utilisateur:Anthere]]. It should be quite valid for a developer on [[fr:]] to change such a name.
