When tagging a colleague, the ability to delete their last name

In most modern software, if you @-tag someone, you can hit backspace once and delete their last name and retain the tag. This is so you don't sound so formal, especially in small team environments where there's probably only one person by that first name. Needless to say, Wrike doesn't offer this functionality which is why I'm requesting it.

Yes! Like Slack or even Microsoft Outlook does.

Hey Teddy 👋
 
Thanks for the suggestion! Your feedback has been noted and forwarded to the relevant team for review. I will definitely get back to you if there's any progress 👍
 
Also, can you please tell me how many users you have in your account? Because in Wrike, user profile names is connected to the ability to @mention people in comments, and there could be multiple people with the same first name.
 
Thanks!

We have not many - like 10 active users, but maybe 30 accounts.

So that's kind of the point - that's why you DELETE the last name after starting the @-tag. So you can make sure you are @-tagging the right "John" or "Jenny" or whomever.
