Can i change the name of a microsoft team i am apart of, for only myself?

My teachers really horribly name the Microsoft Teams for our classes, and all have identical profile pictures and only a few digits or letters difference, for the subject and set. Here's an example:

My Geography class = 2021-CB12D-Gg1

My History class = 2021-CB12D-Hg1

I hope that conveys the frustration I feel for their lack of thought when naming our classes. I'm just wondering, can I change how the names of the teams show on my screen? So could I just give each class a nickname that makes is easy, like; "Geography" and "History", not "2021-FNEWTHRTYR-ERYERYERYFH-g"

If not, you guys at Microsoft should definitely add a feature like that, it would be great.

    Hi, Axel,

    My name is Didi. I'm happy to help you today.

    I hear your situation. I'm afraid to say, however, that having a just member role in a team won't enable us to change a team's name.

    For that reason, I invite you to submit a feature request at Teams UserVoice by clicking the Help icon on the app then select 'Suggest a feature'.

    If the feedback feature is disabled on your account, you can go directly to https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/599...

    Best regards,
