Don't avoid the name, DISCREDIT the name. Someone finds a comic that's funny? Link his Neo-Nazi work so they know the artist.
"Refusing" to even say the name with the same stupid unoriginal phrase is not only useless and counterproductive, it's weak. Search "Pebble Yeet" and guess what you find.

Arguably Joe Biden, they've been calling him Brandon for years. But they make up stupid little nicknames for everyone.
I'd say Brandon is more of an in-joke/jargon/shibboleth to identify each other.
