In Catholic eschatology Revelations is very symbolic and they teach much of it was already fullfill by Rome in the first couple centuries. It has been traditionally held by both Protestants and Ana-baptists(Baptists) that the Whore which sits on seven hills in Revelations is the Roman Catholic church. For that reason alone I would think they would make such objections. Personally I try not to fill in the blanks with names realizing that the first time Jesus came few reconized Him because He didn't fit preconceived notions.
