Yes, a person who inherits a living estate can be named on the deed. When a living estate is created, the grantor retains certain rights while transferring ownership to another party, typically the remainderman. If the remainderman inherits the living estate after the grantor's death, they would generally need to be formally added to the deed through a legal process. This ensures their ownership rights are recognized and documented.

An heir may sell property by deed if the estate has been duly probated and the heir acquired all the interest in the property under the will.
