Show real names of titled players in live

I am trying to follow Titled Tuesday games, but I don't know who is who. It would be nice to see their real names on the live list.

But what if they don't want to expose their real names? If they want to expoise it, then they will if not then not.

I am talking about the obvious ones. Hikaru has his pic (easy to get because his account is hikaru) but Andrew Tang for example doesn't, yet his pic is in his profile and everyone broadcasting says his name. It's no secret. I am just saying for obvious ones who already are known so we can get to their games quicker.

 

It's to everyone's advantage. Otherwise, I tune out because I want to follow their games, they play fast and I want to be able to get to them quickly. I don't want to see a broadcast of say Andrew Tang's game for 10 seconds, then the commentator skips to another game. 

 

I then have to go to live and search for him by his chess.com account name. So, I say "forget it" and I do something else.

 

When Lichess broadcasts they have the players' names

To play in Titled Tuesday, the players have to have their name in their profile.
