So what you got told on the phone was correct by Eurostar. However the
chances of being picked up are very slim - tickets are checked
automatically by gates at check in which simply let you through so long
as the ticket is for the right date & time for which you are about to
board. I suppose they have the right to check name against passport/ID
details especially if you're travelling on an age related/student/rail
staff discounted fare.

And this is of course only possible when there's a name on the ticket.
Tickets sold in for example Belgium don't mention any name.
