I think they don't have names so viewers can project themselves onto the characters more easily. It makes the story feel more universal!
The characters in Goblin Slayer don't have names to give the series a more mythic and archetypal feel, focusing on their roles and actions instead.
Honestly, it's probably because naming everyone would just make things more confusing. Easier to remember 'Goblin Slayer' than 'Bob the Goblin Slayer.'
