Custom "nicknames" in DMs

[ArtexJay]

Your use case

What would you like to do?

I'd like to have to have nicknames/custom names set for people in the DM's, etc.

Why would you like to do it?

So i don't confuse my family or friends with each other or other people, and know exactly who I am talking to. This could be dependent to each user and will offer personalization as well easier identification of who you are/have been talking to by their name.

How would you like to achieve it?

Add option in the DMs settings to add a nickname to the user. This will replace their username within the chat only and will only be visible to you. Not everyone or the other person.

Have you considered any alternatives?

I wasn't able to find any alternatives.
If there are, I'd like to know them.
