Like Ni3ls said you could do that with HUDs/waypoints but I think there was a cvar for it also but i'm not sure.

I was hoping for a cvar or maybe a built-in function but couldn't find any in the script documentation for 1.7a/libcod/cod4 stock..
I know I could do the hud elem above a players head but I was hoping for something cleaner such as the spectator's draw enemy names through walls.

I'm not sure about this, but, even if waypoints could show text, you would need to precache the string of the hud on game initialization.
