Could the simple text phrase representing the Name be in an NFT Metadata field of the NAME NFT that is minted ? Is is possible that NFT metadata can be used to route the money to the correct address without needing to hash it ? 🙏
You can use names instead of hashes in the doubly-linked list - but it needs to be sorted. Given that the comparison between names would be a little more complex (you can establish a criteria, but need to keep the length in mind as well), I opted to use hashes.
As for the name in the metadata: NFT holders can put whatever they want in their NFT's metadata. But you still need to look at the XCHandles registry to make sure that a) the handle didn't expire and b) the handle isn't pointing to another name NFT
