Of course the advantage of having a name on all Eurostar tickets is to be
able to retrieve the booking if tickets are lost. Eurostar's conditions
of carriage allow lost or stolen tickets to be duplicated providing the
original booking reference can be found.

When you book over the NMBS website, you do get a reference code if you
choose to pick up your ticket at the station (at the ticket window or
machine). This should be enough, I guess. Or the (unique) code on the
ticket.

Loose you're ticket and of course you loose the booking reference, unless
you booked by phone or internet when you would (hopefully) still got a
separate written or printed record of it. By having a name along with
some travel details (date, departure time and/or train number) then you
should be able to search on the booking system for the reference.
