Every now and then people use an extremely long name like
“WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW”

When play with this guy, his name will cover on the map and make other player cannot see the map.

I am using a standard 1920 x 1080 screen and I think it affect quite a lot of people

Knowing that the game uses your Steam name (or from another platform). Limiting the name is up to these platforms, not to the devs.

What is up to the devs is how many characters they could show of a name. That would be a more sensible suggestion.

Something like this
The Score panel cover too much area of the game when someone name is too long
I know I can switch off the panel but the information that the panel provide is quite important
