Overriding the name of a type dynamically

[martinjt]

I'm playing around with building a class that will model how the OpenTelemetry Collector's config works.

Specifically, they have a format that takes a list of components, but does them as Objects

receivers:
   otlp/1:
     <stuff>
   otlp/2:
    <stuff>

What I want to be able to do is represent that as a list in code (since the OTLP and OTLP/2 objects are the same thing.

So what I want to do is "just" override the name part, and the rendering of the List as a objects.

The classes will look something like this:

public class Config
{
   public List<Receivers> Receivers { get; } = [];
}

public abstract class Receiver
{
   public abstract string ReceiverType;
   public string ReceiverName;
}

Is this possible, I've been struggling to make it work.
