I'm not sure what the equivalent would be, but that's not really it. This is just like shredding documents and credit cards before throwing them away. By all likelyhood, no one's shifting around in your garbage, but it's just reasonable.
Address is one thing. Name is another. Sensitive documents and credit cards have actual risk involved if found, minute though it might be. Simply having your name out there is no different than wearing a "Hi, My Name Is" sticker to a crowded party.
