Hello,
I am writing to submit a feature request regarding the on-screen name tag in Zoom. The fixed position of the name tag, located at the bottom-left of the screen, is a constant and significant distraction.
For many users, including myself, this detail can be very difficult to ignore due to a strong obsessive focus on visual elements. It directly impacts my ability to concentrate during meetings and especially while giving presentations or leading a class.
I kindly request that you consider adding a feature that allows users to:
1. **Move the name tag:** Let users freely drag and drop the name tag to any position on the screen.
2. **Hide the name tag:** Provide an option to make the name tag completely invisible.
I believe this is a common issue for a large number of users who rely on Zoom for professional and educational purposes. Implementing this feature would greatly improve the user experience and reduce unnecessary visual clutter for people who are sensitive to it.
Thank you for your consideration.

Although the name position is fixed the visibility of the names is adjustable. It is not clear what device you are using, but on Windows In settings > meetings you came lock visibility on. If that is off then when your cursor is NOT over the Zoom window the names will disappear.
If this works please click accept as a solution.
