I deactivated my Facebook but why does my name still show up?

When you deactivate your Facebook, your name is still visible but I don't think anyone can click on your name or view your profile because you no longer have a profile, but Facebook never completely gets rid of it, that's why you're able to reactivate it if wanted. If they didn't, you'd have to go through and create a whole new profile if you wanted back on Facebook. I don't know why, but they keep all the deactivated accounts in like a "drawer" no one can message you or see your stuff because it technically doesn't exsist, but your name will still show up for a WHILE because it's in that "drawer".
