I use dummy text in Interface Builder. Here is an example.

The MYNAME is not really interface text, and it is set programmatically in viewDidLoad. Can I mark this a special way so that it is excluded from my translations files by default?

If you're using ibtool to set up the strings for localization/translation, you cannot exclude words directly. Use the --export-XLIFF option on ibtool to create an XLIFF file. You then edit the excluded strings in the XLIFF file by adding the attribute translate="no". The edited XLIFF file then goes to the translators who (hopefully) can use it.
