No.
The names of sequencer ports are controlled only by the sequencer
client (application/driver) itself.

You could use the "Midi Through" ports of the snd-seq-dummy driver and
connect the hardware ports from/to those. Use the "ports" parameter
to get more than one port. (These names are neither short nor helpful,
but at least unique.)
It would be possible to write your own tool that behaves like the
snd-seq-dummy driver but allows customizing the port names.
