I agree that Custom names are lame.
Getting your own name is also fruity.
If you get a player's name, while it may be cool now, you always run the risk of that player leaving and you looking like a tool -- look at anyone with an Oliwa jersey.

However; if we are assume that Iginla will retire as a Flame, getting his jersey wouldn't be so bad, because he has meant so much to the team / city. Although it seems really commonplace, if you ever go vacation outside of Calgary and/or Canada, then everyone will marvel at your Iginla jersey.

My Flames Jersey has no lettering. I've always maintained though, that if the Flames win the cup, I will get mine lettered to whoever scored the Cup-clinching goal. If freaking Jeff Friesen scores the Cup-winning goal, goddamnit, I'll letter my jersey with his name.
