Thank you, @nohn! Would it be preferable not to provide a name at all for the entity to avoid name changes? |

I don't know. The entity ID will not be changed, the Name will. Still, it won't be overwritten of you set it manually in the UI. |

Ok, since the linked post states to remove the information and for the best compatibility (e.g., names used in Dashboards/Notifications/..., that were not changed manually), I removed them. Thanks again for bringing the post to my attention. |
