I suspect the actual reason for it coming up in law was because of the XSS company somebody registered some time after my meme went around. That one actually did work*, and as I understand it, there was no recourse available to companies house - they are legally obliged to accurately record company names, and the law specifies which characters can be in company names, meaning you could always serve XSS there, which they're not a fan of.
That said, they forced my company name to show as 'name available on request' now (even on letters they send me, which is kind of funny), so apparently they did find a workaround.
