Feature request: TeamMember components to support first name #9727

Open Lior539 opened 3 days ago

Lior539 commented 3 days ago

Would love if team member components would support only showing the persons first name e.g.

I want to write It took Robbie a year to build and not It took Robbie Coomber a year to build

tbh I don't think this is really necessary. The fact that it's incapsulated shows it wasn't written by hand and feels less robotic than if it were, in which case I'd agree with you. Also this doesn't work great for people who are named Ben, James, etc.

Sorry to reopen, but I disagree: To be clear, Im referring to the variant without the photo. Im referring to the one with the underline

It can feel unnatural or more formal to include someones last name in my writing, which is why the preference to use only first name, which is more colloquial and typical of PostHog writing
