We'll need some design for this to look good. I also have some concerns about the idea of making other people's names public who might not know they are being posted publicly on a website. Think of spite-donations, for example, making a donation in honor of a major public figure who openly opposes the cause of that organization. This could open a can of worms for some people.

But if Tribute info was given a nice icon, and perhaps the name was like "Matt C." it could be a safe option.

This is an important feature. Donors would like to see their tribute on their donor wall nameplate.
