The 'Original' Bug
[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.

Their Response to the 'Original' Bug
[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).

The name parameter cannot be specified for
eeditorveditwhich may be required for people managing volunteer events.Especially for events, the names of events can change, and if the coordinator has to delete the event an recreate it with all the assignments of volunteers to the event, it can take a very long time instead of just allowing the user to directly edit the name of the event.
