What's the point of renaming your house if the new name only shows in the collections tab?

I finally thought of a new name for the Antiquarian's house just to discover that the new name only shows up under the original name in the collections tab. What is the point of that?

I realize they can't make it so everyone would see the new name when looking at it's icon on the map, but couldn't they make it so the owner can? And guests when they are actually inside the home?

I am very sad that I came up with a name for the lodge I turned this into, Silver Light Lodge, but I can't even see it. :I

    Thought the same thing. I wish it would show the name on the load screen when traveling to someone's place.

    I think the new name shows up on the door to the house on the outside.

    I never renamed mine so there is some generic name in quotes in addition to the old name.

    I'll check that tomorrow. I rarely ever go in the door, but always teleport in from the map.

    Me too, but sometimes as soon as I click to leave I remember something else I was going to do while I was there...

    I did check it out and it does show the custom name when you go in through the door. But it shows it in quotations under the original name which is pretty disappointing.

    Some of my places are strictly used for storage and the names help me remember what I have stored where. That's the only use I've found for it.
