O.P. Multiple names?
Is it possible for msgplus! to have a feature where you will have one name for one person and another for another?

That means: So my friends will see "A has logged on", my family will see "B has logged on" and everyone else will see "C has logged on"?

That would be quite a good feature though. So then I can have a good old offensive name for my friends to see without my family getting mad :P

The only way you can have a name-per-contact is to use a plugin that changes it for conversations. It's not possible to do the same thing for the contact list, as that info is cached on MSN's servers.
