Because they can't all be firebreathers like this one: http://novaresource.org/gallery1/64paulc1.jpg

I'm not necessarily saying that I think Chevy should rename Cobalt "Nova," but "deserve" is kind of iffy on the name "Nova." Out of 17 years of Nova production genuine performance models were only available for 7 of them (1964-1970). And even in those 7 years how many 4 door 6 bangers were built for every early SS with a 327 or later SS396?
