In CTRL-C (copy) mode, you can hold down the SHIFT key while selecting objects. The selection border turns blue (instead of white). This way you create a temporary blueprint instead of a plain copy, and you are able to deselect station names. This blueprint exists only while you hold it in the hand. It's gone if you directly place it on the ground, it will not clutter your inventory. It will also appear as recent item if you press CTRL-V and scroll through the previous copies with the mouse wheel.
