I want the names I enter to show up. This would help me recognize particular players through the years.
I believe that, if you add a nickname yourself, that nickname then becomes part of the game's database, and it will randomly assign that nickname to future players, even if you have a blank nicknames.txt file. So if you want to give a player the nickname "Mr. September," you might find a rookie coming along a few years later with the same nickname.
