This won't fix HuffPo's problem. Their content doesn't inspire thoughtful engagement. However, call me cynical, but I don't think this is the real reason why they want to use real names. Most likely they want to do it for the same reason Google does; real names are more valuable to advertisers. I would guess that this is part of a larger strategy.
