O.P. Suggestion: Displayed Name
I would like to see an ability to change the displayed name in my messenger window.  This would look more professional for me at work.

Instead of a off color or policitlly incorrect email address as the displayed name I can give the person my own nickname.

For eample my friend 'BOB JONES" has a nick name of displayed as "Pretty Pink Panties" or PINK_PANTY_HUNTER@HOTMAIL.com but I'd rather just see him as BOB JONES or what ever else I want to call him.

Is there a way to do this.  I dont want to change the way others see his name, just the appearance in my own window.  Maybe the ability to give each contact a 'NICK NAME" and then I chose to display the nickmane or not.  Yahoo IM has this feature, why not MSN?
