Lugnut:
Can't you just mount/create an invisible object above a players head with a shape name?
Then promptly delete it?
Surely this is not hard.

That's not mounting, that's setting it's position, which even when looping as fast as you can - to keep up with the player's position, there will be a delay which makes it look bad.

You could also do this client-sided to make actual graphics instead of boring text.
