Describe the bug
When adding a WMS-layer in QGIS you often have the possibility to read the layer with a preset additional style. But when doing so, the layer is given the name of the style rather than the name of the layer. This makes for a confusing layer list.

Request
Since it would be nice to have the option of choosing additional styles without confusion in the layer list, my request is that the handling of additional styles should be separated from the loading of WMS-layers.

Problem

  1. Add the following WMS-layer to a QGIS project https://geodata.havochvatten.se/geoservices/fiskets-geografier/ows

  2. In the Layer administrator, choose one of the additional styles.

  3. When imported, the layer name is the same as the style.

@KriBl I don't think that the problem you are reporting is related to WMS styles, but actually to the fact that QGIS WMS client load the WMS layer with its "title" and not with the "name", while the WFS client for example does the opposite.
