Applicant is using the construction "X the Obstreperous" (Can anyone guess who this is for?) I was operating under the assumption that confirmation of the adjective used in period in conjuction with documentation for that naming convention would be suitable. Am I all alone in left field??

No, you assume wrong. "the Big It" is composed of words in
a dictionary, but that doesn't make it a period-style byname.
OK, I was too brief (group meeting in 10 seconds). The OED
is sufficient documentation IF you can document similar
period names.
