If the name is valuable, obtain a trademark and negate the risk.
Meaning, if she has been using that name as a porn performer for 4+ years, appeared in multiples movies aired on broadcast networks, events, etc., then she has established a common law trademark?

Now that doesn't stop someone from still trying to trademark the name, but she could then hire an attorney and go after to invalidate the trademark?
