Translated with Google Translate:
If you change the "Display Name" of a bundle, you can not undo this. From this point, always both must be changed: Bundle "Name" and Bundle "Display Name".
It would be very nice if you could turn off the Bundle "Display Name" again, so that only the bundle "Name" is active again.

The German original:
Ändert man den „Display Name“ eines Bundles, kann man dies nicht mehr rückgängig machen. Ab diesem Zeitpunkt muss immer beides geändert werden: Bundle „Name“ und Bundle „Display Name“.
Es wäre sehr schön, wenn man den Bundle „Display Name“ wieder ausschalten könnte, so dass wieder nur der Bundle „Name“ aktiv ist.

  • Actually, I have been able to get them back into alignment. The bundle name can be changed at any time and does not require reversioning. The bundle display name requires reversioning. Seems like it took a couple of versions to get them back in sync. I think a "force" or "override" would make it easier. However, it might get tricky when you have a published version and a sandbox version. Perhaps a force option to change Display Name and Sandbox Display Name?

  • I cannot delete a Display Name. I get the error message: "Bundle Name has a limit of 1 to 512 characters."

  • Sounds like you are trying to give the Display Name no name, which you cannot do. Bundle Name and Display Name are required fields. You can set them the same or make them different, but you must enter something. I try to keep both the same unless we absolutely need to display something different to the user. Keeping them the same makes it easier for our Help Desk to assist the user, since properties of the icon do not show the bundle name, only display name and GUID.

  • How can I return to a synchronous name? (If I have used different names, do I have to keep both names manually synchronized?)

    And yes, the bundle name is not displayed by the properties of the icon is another problem.

  • Manually set both to the same name and re-publish. I think I had to re-publish twice to get it to synchronize.
