A token isn’t a card. When you choose a card name, you have to choose the name of an actual card that’s legal in the format you’re playing.
201.3 If an effect instructs a player to choose a card name, the player must choose the name of a card is legal in the format of the game the player is playing. (See rule 100.6.) A player may not choose the name of a token unless it’s also the name of a card.
