Well, you can't just order an EV cert for "Citi Bank" unless you have "Citi Bank" registered as a legal entity.

Section 9.2.1 (Page 9): https://cabforum.org/wp-content/uploads/EV-V1_5_7.pdf

In addition to using & verifying the legally registered name, it must be verified that there is a physical address for the business, if that address doesn't match the registered location, additional verification is required. There are additional provisions of verification as well. See section 11 of the same document.

Obviously the Citi example was a joke, but most actual certificates I see are to "R L Media Enterprises" or whatever the D&B name of the business is, which is opaque to me anyways.
