Presumably, for the icons, distros could decide that the packages including the original icons are not free, and simply replace the trademarked icons with a distro-branded (or otherwise non-trademarked) set of icons. Names are possibly more of a problem, because it may not be easy to replace the names of programs and have anyone able to find them, or even be sure to change every occurance.
