Due to the way BadBehavior works, I very much doubt that it can monitor/police usernames.


However, this may be applicable: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:TitleBlacklist

"The Title Blacklist extension allows wiki administrators to block the creation, movement and upload of pages which title matches one or more regular expressions, as well as blocking creation of accounts with matching usernames."
