If this is about the _display name_, [this](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/main/lib/plugin/instance.rb#L170C1-L175C20) is how it works.

If your plugin has metadata `# name: discourse-foo-bar` in `plugin.rb`,

Then the plugin will be shown as “Foo bar”

But you can override this in locales/client.XX.yml

```plaintext
en:
  admin_js:
    admin:
      site_settings:
        categories:
          discourse_foo_bar: "Discourse Foo Bar Blah"

```

The plugins will be _sorted_ by what comes after discourse- though.
