Do we need to design a protocol that how we speak our own name clearly and loudly?

Be loud, and be proud!

As a non-native english speaker, I do have difficulties to understand
names of .... native english speakers.

May I make a suggestion: why not having some of these RFIDs or another
technology where the speaker would be identified by his card and his
name would be displayed on some additional TV display ? I think it
would benefit everyone to know who is the person on the mic.
