Actually it comes down to "depends", for most of us it would be highly offensive however if you are in sales then you take every advantage you can get. And as much as most here may be outraged there is plenty of prejudice and bigotry out there.

If a name makes a prospective client uncomfortable then a nom de plume may well be in the sales mans best interest. In which case the sales manager is actually doing a good job.
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity
