SocialGraphApiProtoLimitedProfileNameSettings

Required. Describes which shortening option the user implicitly chose for their limited profile. E.g., if 'John Doe' chose 'John D.', they implicitly chose: partial_name_options { given_name_spec { show_all: true } family_name_spec: { show_initial: true truncation_indicator: PERIOD } } While we'll in all cases serve the actual name chosen by the user for limited profiles (stored below), we'll use this information to recompute the default limited profile to be rendered to users when they change their core name.

The actual textual name that was chosen by the user in the UI. E.g., if 'John Doe' chose 'John D.', this holds 'John D.'. While partial_name_options allows the limited profile name to be computed from the core name, the resulting shortened name might change across different versions of the name shortening logic, and we want to preserve the user's choice verbatim whenever possible. This field will be cleared when the two conditions below are met: (1) A successful core name change is not accompanied by a limited profile settings update and (2) The shortened name computed from partial_name_options yields a different result than what is originally stored in verbatim_full_name. When this happens, the limited profile is effectively disabled. E.g., if 'John Doe' from the example above changes their name to 'Jane Doe' and no LimitedProfileSettings are provided, Jane D. is the resulting shortened name. Therefore verbatim_full_name will be cleared and the limited profile settings will be disabled. On the other hand, if they change their name to John Dõe, the resulting shortened name remains John D., and verbatim_full_name is kept as is.
