Cannot rename each item in the Slideshow Repeater to have different names

Working in Wix Studio Editor

Shown by the red arrow! When trying to change the name of each repeater to easily find the one I need to edit, renaming one item automatically renames the rest.

Probably a bug, just sharing for you to know.

I am not sure this is the right place to share this. Please direct me!

This issue has existed since day one and is becoming increasingly frustrating.

The functionality to rename items already exists, so this does not appear to be a complex or fundamental limitation. However, when renaming elements inside a clickable repeater (for example, a list of different products), all items receive the same name.

This makes it extremely difficult to identify which specific object you are working with in the hierarchy, especially in larger projects. It is also a major pain point when running workshops or onboarding customers, as it becomes nearly impossible to clearly explain which element is being selected or edited.

Please address this behavior and allow individual items in repeaters to retain distinct names. This would significantly improve usability and workflow.
