Nope, all ex-corp. The real push away from Shadowruning (you still
ran the Shadows with Shadowbeat for whatever reasons) was with the
Companion. What people did with their own games before that was up to
them.

Ancient cultures believed that names held great power, personal names
more so and they were guarded very closely. To protect themselves, they
answered to another name, because if another discovered their real name,
it could be used against them.
History repeats itself.
