[Marvel] Why do the Fantastic Four have superhero names?

I mean Reed Richards is one of the most famous scientists on the planet, everyone's heard of him. Is his ego really so fragile that he had to give himself that absurd nickname? Stephen Hawking doesn't go around calling himself 'Mister Handsome-And-Amazing'.

Johnny Storm is the only one that makes sense to me. He actually *does* seem like the type to give himself a silly title, plus it was probably inevitable that he'd be compared to that old WW2 android, so it's better to nip it in the bud early on.

Invisible Woman and The Thing on the other hand just sound like weird nicknames for respected heroes. The former massively downplays Sue's more impressive forcefield abilities, and the latter is just insulting. Ben Grimm always seems kinda uncomfortable whenever his skin-condition is brought up, like he thinks of himself as a monster, yet he still introduces himself as "The ever-loving blue-eyed Thing". What's up with that?

It was the 60s, all those marvels of science, magic, and technology got names by the press. And boy, that Baxter Building four were pretty fantastic when they showed up. It was before your time, kid. You wouldn't understand. Back before a guy would show up with shoulder spikes and a voice modulator calling himself ARMAGEDDON or some such.
