Is it possible somehow to display rest symbols in a ChordNames

yes. use:
\score <<

I've never seen something like that. What this rest in chords
should mean?
For chords stop usually the following sign is used: ¬

I don't do much with chords, but I would imagine it means "don't
play a chord here".
The usual notation is "N.C." for no chord - I cannot say that I
have ever seen a rest symbol used for this purpose.
Maybe it's a regional thing (or maybe a composer who doesn't know).
I'm in germany, and I had to figure out how to get a rest in the
ChordNames because the composer was insistent. Regardless, I imagine
the people who have to play it would understand what the rest symbol
meant. What N.C. could stand for in german would probably make at
least a 2 minute stand up sketch comedy skit.
