In my custom Blocks (Hybrid Blocks) is in the advanced-Panel the option “BLOCK NAME” visible. But the value is not saved nor reflected in the structure panel.

While the core/group Block can be renamed in the structure panel context menu.

I would love to organize my Block by naming them. How can i enable this option?

Hi there,

This is still an experimental feature, which might change eventually:

> <https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/54426>
>
> \<!-- Thanks for contributing to Gutenberg! Please follow the Gutenberg Contribut…ing Guidelines:
> https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/blob/trunk/CONTRIBUTING.md --\>
> 
> \## What?
> 
> 
> Following on from https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/53735, this PR enables the ability to rename \*\*all blocks\*\* by \_default\_, with the exception of the following blocks:
> 
> \- \`core/block\`
> \- \`core/template-part\`
> \- \`core/pattern\`
> \- \`core/navigation\`
> 
> 
> 
> \## Why?
> 
> 
> Because it was suggested we should open up this feature.
> 
> \## How?
> 
> 
> \- Adds metadata to all blocks by default (the \`\_\_experimentalMetadata\` support is removed).
> \- Add new \`\_\_experimentalBlockRenaming\` block supports.
> \- Set excluded blocks support to \`false\`.
> \- Provides custom label definitions for those blocks that already implement one.
> 
> \## Testing Instructions
> 
> 
> 
> 
> 
> \- Add any block (except for the exceptions defined above).
> \- Open list view
> \- Click ellipsis menu and click \`Rename\`.
> \- Enter a name.
> \- See block uses custom name.
> \- Repeat with all of the exception blocks and verify they cannot be renamed.
> 
> 
> \### Testing Instructions for Keyboard
> 
> 
> \## Screenshots or screencast

If it would be added down the line it might loose support / change meta name with the core update and etc, this as I understand it would not be viable to implement it right now.

I do not understand why experimental features are released in stable WP. There is a Gutenberg Plugin for that… The GB project is a mess.
