I've always considered 7's and such as a gimme to alleviate some of
the hardships of dealing with the leaps of difficulties when using
modifiers on a d6 scale. Limit the effectiveness of minimal success (1
success) since that is more likely your real troublemaker. I'd rather
play this as is.

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.
