FR: Display only nicknames in the contact list if it is defined in the entry

Open nab-os opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Coming from communities where we mainly use nicknames and don't know by heart people's real name, it would be nice to have a toggle option in the parameters to only display nicknames in the contact list for the contacts for which it is defined.

As it does not seem too complicated I am willing to try to implement it, but I am far from expert in Android development. So tips and advice are welcome.

I would also love to hide the middle names ... An option field where you can select how the display name should look like would be great! With options like "sur + firstname", "first + surname", "first + middle + surname", "nickname", ...

Please make this also available in the dialer app (through the commons?!).

This would be a very welcome feature. You should be able to customize, per contact, what is shown. It's strange to see the full name plus prefix for every contact.
