I’d like to be able to easily change the ‘From’ name of the connected emails.  
Because whilst you can connect other email accounts to HubSpot and select them to send emails, the ‘from’ name is always your Account Name, which doesn’t work if you are using aliases i.e.  
My account name = James Smith

My alias email address is = [Andrew.Johnson@companyname.com](mailto:Andrew.Johnson@companyname.com)

Send address = James Smith ([Andrew.Johnson@companyname.com](mailto:Andrew.Johnson@companyname.com))
