    Description

      NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Server. Using JIRA Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      The field "Issue Type" is abbreviated in most issue lists (or issue navigator) as "T". The "Priority" field is abbreviated as "P". But when you're on a form (such as Create Issue), the label for the field is the full name. See screenshot. This makes me think the underlying structure to have a full name and an abbreviated name exists.

      Can this be made available for Custom Fields?
