Actually, 3.0 does/can display common names: In the configure menu, go-to "labels" and tick "common name."

I don't think 3.0 shows common star names although you can search for them. We discussed this a long long time ago and I think Patrick said there was some technical reason for it but frankly I'm surprised it's not fixed yet. People will want common names next to the stars.
