Allow module display names to be changed

[gocreative]

When viewing the list of installed modules, provide the ability for each module to be assigned a 'nickname'. This way clients can see a more descriptive/appropriate title for each module.

Pretty simple with module_custom.

Most modules put their module names in the lang files.

Thanks, I know about that one. I would just like to see a simple method from within the CMS itself.

I added this feature to my Custom Global Settings module because I also see the need for this sometimes. But it is something a module developer has to do for each of his or her modules. It isn't something that can be done within the Core.
The module_custom methode Wishbone describes is the best available for the others at the moment.

Thanks for the info. Just regarding it not being possible in the core, my thought behind it was that it would simply do a find/replace for each module name when it's being displayed in the admin section. But I guess it's not as simple as that. Anyway, not a huge issue.
