I have recently noticed that POI names (for example parks, shops, gas stations) are rendered as "Operator: Name" in the Garmin map.
This leads to POI names list that is not helpful, showing a list of names that look the same and need to be checked individually to find what I'm looking for.
For example, in the city I live, all parks are managed by "Christchurch City Council", this is often reflected in the operator tag in OSM. This leads to the actual names of parks not visible in the list of POIs in Garmin unit. In the list only about 20~25 characters are visible.
Moreso, there seems to be an amount of characters after which Garmin truncates the name of POI, so if both the operator and name are quite long, this leads to cutting characters of the name altogether.
For example this park is displayed as "Christchurch City Council: Linwood Esplanade Rese" with the last 3 characters being cut off.
It's a simple fix: The "Name" tag should come first as it is more important and descriptive; and then it could be followed by the "Operator" tag.
