Actually, knowing the name of something/someone is at the foundation of many beliefs in and outside of Asia. Among other religions/philosophies, Japanese Religion and Spirituality have been greatly influenced by Confucius. [] []

Although, a bit doubtful that Rukia would be a full-fledged Bankai Hero by just learning the name from Ichibei, it would greatly aid her spiritual strength =) I would love to see that Rukia got her Bankai, but I think it would be more awesome to see her obtaining it as the story continues, if at all =D
