Only those beings who respect and fear Sauron never referred to him by name, and since most of his tools did both. But someone like the Mouth, with no respect for anyone after his ages of life at the top, wouldn't have a problem with it, just like Saruman didn't have a problem with it.

I agree with the Keeper with that beings who feared and respected him didn't use his name, Saruman thought of himself as an equal with Sauron. However, the Mouth could hardly not say Sauron's name for fear, as this would undermine his position. I don't think that it was out of disrespect/

It was that Dwarves are inherently less capable of being dominated.

I would also add that this was so because they were created at a time when Morgoth was still very much a threat, and his creations were loose in the world. This is why they were able to withstand Glaurung in his early years, and why that greed and love of gold would be the next best possible thing next ot them becoming dominated by Sauron.
