Firstly - thanks for this awesome script! It's going to help a lot!
Right now, your code seems to be able to identify the destination calendar name in google calendar - it's based on the name of the calendar.
I've currently got about 5 "read only" type public calendars for various family sports events. Some of these calendars do not do a good job with event titles - just calling things "practice" so when I see them integrated, it is hard to know what calendar they came from. It would be great if you can somehow pull the source calendar "name" field and allow us to prepend that to the event title. For example "Eileen Hockey" + (the event name).

That would allow us to know from which calendar it came.
Hope that makes sense.

Have you tried var addCalToTitle = true;?

Yes, but that seems to put in the calendar originator or something - I can only guess that not all calendars have this setup properly. I have one calendar where the value is blank: https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/b0ld0e9lib8mij9o2mmtu0isbfr7j2er%40import.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics and another where it says "Jr. Sharks Events" : https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/r4fv6ktfor70viani07ku6q5p9pvg1v4%40import.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics Other calendars seem to put more descriptive info into the title of each event - I'm guessing that these are the individual event titles - like "2022-23 Cougars 8U" in this calendar: https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/bt8jcisdi48khr6gg42utq8c6968fr7u%40import.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics Some of these titles can be so long that they don't work in the calendar view either. Open to ideas here! Thanks! -pat

Maybe have a look at #144 for custom prefixes.
