No one is in a position to stop you naming them as you wish, but please encourage people to enter the "name on the street sign" on some tag. loc_name would be most suitable for that, probably, if you use the tag "name" consistently for the official name. Not really related to osm but the signs: the cost for manufacturing a short or long metal sign is much lower than the installation costs, so hopefully the signs will change in some decades... We too have an abundance of long street names (and most of them in two languages) but they're still all written out in full and in both languages. Historic reasons are a burden.
