To a degree but very few people I know use these names. Most use the 9.10/10.04 which imho is one of the best naming patterns for an OS.
It is very convenient to look at the OS version and be able to tell instantly if it is a LTS or standard build and when it was released.
Maybe these are only benefits due to how often Ubuntu releases new versions but I've found them useful.
