Use target name as anchor text

Is it possible to automatically use the name of the target entity as the anchor text for a Linkit link?

For example, I know I want a link to the taxonomy term Entacmaea quadricolor, but I can only remember that it starts with "Ent". When I type "Ent" and I choose Entacmaea quadricolor from the Linkit drop-down menu, the anchor text for the link becomes /taxonomy/term/637. Instead I would like it to insert the words Entacmaea quadricolor and use them as the anchor text of the link, so I can avoid the extra steps of looking up the spelling of the term and modifying the anchor text.

To be clear, I am looking for this functionality when inserting a link via the "Link" button in CK Editor, without first selecting text to add a link to.
