There's a server in Australia called SNAFU'S CO Maps. They use RCBot, and rip off other people's names to catch attention and get visitors. Is there something you could do about it?

It's kinda always been left upto the server host to assign names for the bots they run on thier servers. By default, bots come with a set of random names just so the bots have names but it has always been encuraged to name the bots your self. Other bot authors, like foxbot for example, actually give the server op the option to spawn bots on the fly with any spacific name they like, even if the name was not found in the bots names list.

Now I may admit that there are quite a few players out there that would not like bots using thier names and there are some that may actually feel honored by this. If your one of the ladder then might I suggest you try to contact the server host and ask them nicely to not use your name as a bots name. I'm sure that if your respectful enough, the server op will comply with your wishes.
