Hey swoonet,
You're not using v3.4.1 by any chance, are you?
v4 allows you to pick arbitrary names and categories indeoendent of your hierarchy. Could you send an example of the issue please?
It says v4. As an example say you create a default category for people living in a village called Red village. I create a new entry under red village and set it to character and name them then hit save everything. No matter what, the displayed entry remains being called red village even if the name when you double click is correct, it stays with the wrong name in the column. It does this for me on every option unless you save it as default then go back and change it to character or w/e.
