When you modify a name/avatar on Slack, the change is made globally it affects all previous messages, etc. There are only 4 of us that use Slack, and you can see our user handles on the left under "DIRECT MESSAGES". No one is using the handle 'Elon Musk' or 'Cal Henderson'.

They can use whatever name/avatar they want if they use the Slack API.
