I wouldn't be so fast in leaving only the sitename as sender name - a mail from "Wikipedia" would raise my (manual) spam alarms, just like emails from the "Federal Bureau of Investigations" or from "[X] Bank".
Facebook's email messages come from "Facebook". Twitter's email messages come from "Twitter". Google Plus email messages come from "Google+".
Flickr's email messages come from "Flickr mail" Linkedin's email messages come from different senders - by far the best solution. (Installed) Wordpress' emails come from different senders AOL's (does anyone remember them?) emails come from different senders.
OpenTable email messages come from "OpenTable". Netflix email messages come from "Netflix". Kickstarter email messages come from "Kickstarter". Quora email messages come from "Quora".
