In Colombia we have this tradition of making "old guy" dolls that are burn on new years eve with messages from all the things we want to left behind. When my cousin changed his name, we named the old guy with his dead name and burned it.
Mind your local laws regarding burning things out in the open. But i think it would be super cool if people started adopting this. I don't know how similar the tradition is to the colombian one, but in ecuador the doll is called the "old year". It's stuffed with old newspaper and sawdust, clothed in old, unusable pants and shirt and wears a papier-mâché mask of whatever you want. It's common to put a mask of a politician
When someone I know changed her name, her parents decided that they would use a new name but it wouldn't be the one that she wanted, it would be similar. So my friend called their mum Carol, instead of Caroline, and the problem quickly solved itself.

Modern problems require modern solutions. I feel like I should do this with faux brainwashed idiots every time they want to spout off one of their sheeple talking points
Not everyone is completely chicken shit at all times. I'm not going to say every cool story people tell happened, but not everyone's as much a coward as you.
Narcissists are all about their appearances to others. The same people that abuse and overpower in private do everything to seem like the nicest people in the world to others. They can just "oops I forgot" to the deadnaming, but taking away the airhorn by force in front of the rest of the family would show the animal inside that they make their entire lives about hiding.

Future generations grow up thinking those are their actual names because it's what they've always called each other.
