Same root cause
[The team marked this bug as a duplicate of the following bug]
vedit command does not allow changing the name
I think that changing the name will allow for a smoother user experience as they can easily change typos that are made during the creation of the volunteer.
A minor inconvenience and improvement that the function could have.

[This is the team's response to the above 'original' bug]
We removed the ability to change the name for Volunteer and Event on purpose, since names acted as the ID for the Volunteer and Event objects. This was to mitigate a few functionality bugs caused by name changes we identified during PE-D. We will add the ability to change names back in a future update once the ID for Volunteer and Event is changed to a unique numeric ID (as in Planned Enhancements - improve uniqueness for volunteers and events with the same name).

:question: Issue duplicate status

Reason for disagreement: [replace this with your explanation]
The command vedit only allows the user to change the phone, email, or skills of the volunteer, but it is not allowing users to change the name.
This means it will be a hassle if the user accidentally registered a person with the wrong name. To change this, it would require the user to delete the volunteer and readd them again, which is very tedious.
This is the command I used:
vedit 11 n/Frank
