Yes it has the name on it but anyone can have it. I was once stopped in my wife's car about 300 miles from home - I gave them her registration but they did nothing to verify I knew her or had her permission (which they usually don't check of course)... but I could've been her neighbor and stole it. They verified there were no outstanding issues with the vehicle, but again it could've just not been reported yet.
What I'm saying is not having a registration to begin with may raise more red flags so that's good in my eyes. Can't leave the decision to check everything to the cops.
