I assume if there are 100 players in a server, their homeworlds will be numbered 1 - 100, so you can easily identify homeworlds by this method. Even if the owner changes the planet's name, the numbered version still shows up if you try selecting it as a possible "move" destination.

The only hitch in this method is if a player has captured another player's HW. For a PKer, this doesn't matter too much since you can kill either or for the win condition. But for trying to knock a player out, you may have to look closer and make a determination.
This seems right and it was how I figured out starting locations for some players in galaxies I didn't have time to explore until late in the game.
