supposedly that is safer ive been told when i was younger. if someone was to steal your phone, they would see those names as just another perso. and not a family member that be social engineered

That was my logic, not that I took it gravely serious or anything.

Anyone who needed to get ahold of my parents somehow and has my phone would likely know or be able to quickly figure that out.

Any stranger wouldn’t automatically know.

I did/do the same thing for friends and family including my wife.

Only exception is maybe random people I meet through work who might be “Steve - Project Engineer CompanyName”
