If you name an item like a brewing stand, place it, then mine it and look in your hot bar, the custom name is gone.
Steps to reproduce
Name an item that is placeable using an anvil.
Place the item down. (i.e. Enchantment table, Bed, Brewing stand, etc.)
In survival use a pickaxe to pick up the item.
Notice how the name of the item you just picked up now has the default name (i.e. Enchantment table, Bed, Brewing stand, etc.)

Items that are placed (as opposed to dropped) into the world will not have their unique names when they are mined again.
Michael, please confirm you placed the brewing stand and mined it again and the custom name was lost, rather than you renamed it, put it in your inventory, moved it to your hotbar and the custom name was lost.

I can confirm this...
I have tested it with Chest's, Doors, Enchantment Tabel, furnace, brewing stand. I have renamed the items, placed the items and mined the items. After this the items lost there custom name.

I will test it on my tablet soon....
I think this is actually to do with mining the block, not the anvil, because using pick-block will still give you the block along with its custom name
