Universal Display Names

[PapierTanne210]

Unfortunately, Nextcord (Discord.PY) does not currently provide a built-in method to retrieve this universal display name directly. The available display_name property of the nextcord.User object returns the user's display name based on the current server context, which can be problematic, especially if the display name contains emojis. This affects images, for example.
So it would be very nice if you could add this permanently to make the universal display names usable!

The Discord API does return both the unique username and display_name global_name in the user object
This looks more like an issue from the lib's side, contact them at their repo

Thank you for the information, I’ve already sent it to the library’s side, wich is currently in progress!

They have a PR opened for that (nextcord/nextcord#1061), until that's merged in their repository, it's nothing related to this repository.

That's just libraries not supporting the change yet so the issue/discussion should be opened in their repository, not here. So simply wait for them to merge it once it's ready :)

Thank you as well, I’ve already wrote them!
