Misread the scoring system. This answer isn't as bad as I thought I was :-)

"Hello, Niklaus Emil Wirth!" (Befunge-98, 222×18=3996222×14=3108)

With a shift of 34, Niklaus Emil Wirth (18 characters, 14 unique) ends up as p,./$86Bg0,/By,57+.

It is actually possible to make a working solution with just Niklaus Wirth (1312 unique chars, p,./$86By,57+), but the code is much, much longer. I was trying to find a solution for N. Wirth (8 chars, pPBy,57+), but I don't think it's possible to make the program stop.
