  1.  Those are not opinions.

  2.  Even if they were, they would not be construed as opinions by the standard user of the system.

    You tell 'em, RickK! Certainly Andrew there should not be allowed to 
    use a name advocating the qualities "manly, valiant, courageous." On 
    the other tentacle, of course, the name "Richard" expresses the opinion 
    that its bearer is a "powerful ruler; brave one"....
