It would be great if filter groups in lists could be named individually, instead of group 1, group 2, group 3, etc. This would be very helpful to get a better understanding of the filters - especially when many complex filters are applied and/or new employees that are not familiar with the list work on it.

I would also love to see this, there are a number of different filters to group together and being able to label them avoids confusion when reviewing if we have captured all possible selection criteria, without having to create multiple lists ( due to list limits).

Great idea, this would surely help understanding the filters.

HubSpot, please consider this addition to the tool. For some lists that have multiple groups of criteria, it would help ensure the appropriate block is being update/an easier check to ensure the right criteria is included.

Would be sooo helpful. I have so many groups in lists that aren’t related to each other. Would love the ability to name them so my teammates can get up to speed quickly without me having to walk them through it.

Agreed here with OP’s post as well as the follow-on comments. This would be a great quality of life improvement that would allow for added clarity about the composition of a list. Within an enterprise level database we tend to have 8-12 groups (or more) within a single list—usually a small variation of data in each group—and it would be a major help to add this personalized context especially for colleagues who review these list builds, or for better legacy notation.

@hubspot please take a closer look!
