Problem to Solve

I would like to be able to edit the name of Favorites within the Favorites section without changing the name of the page or section that the favorite is pointing to itself.

New Feature/Solution

When I click on the Favorites button, I would like to either see only the edited name of the favorite or a combination of original page/section name and edited favorite name. Currently, I see only the original name of the section or page I have favorited.

This favorite-name should be editable in the OneMore Settings > Favorites window. The window currently contains a two-column table ("Name" and "Location") and should now have an addition column "Favorite Name". If Favorite Name has been left blank, the favorite command should display the entry in Name (unchanged from current behavior), otherwise it show Favorite Name in lieu of the Name.

Alternative Solutions

Changing the original name of the Favorite, i.e. changing the Section of Page title the favorite refers to is the obvious alternative. However, the section and page names that I am collecting under Favorites do make sense to me in the context of the specific workbook or section I am using it in, but less so when I am looking at the list of my favorites.

Additional Context

I only recently discovered and starting using the "Favorites" so I might just be using this Feature all wrong. But it has now become my go-to place when I am opening OneNote.

This is highly related to "Suggestion: Custom names for favorites #169" that has been labeled "wontfix" (#169)

Thank you in advance!
