Why would you think that? Besides, if someone found a way of giving him a name, this wouldn't be a problem.
Even if Anakin was seamlessly renamed Stinkpot Magee, if I watched three movies about how Stinkpot Magee fell to the darkside, served the Emperor, and hunted down the Jedi, and all of a sudden the character Vader, who fell to the darkside, serves the emperor, and hunts down the Jedi says "Luke, I am your father" is it more likely that ones mind would draw a connection with the main character in the PT who does all those things, or with a character mentioned once before and not even named, and be shocked how the nameless Mr. Skywalker did everything Magee did, only wasn't in the movie, and somehow became Darth Vader.
