>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-7231
>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: cordova-lib
>    Affects Versions: Master
>            Reporter: Carlos Santana
>            Priority: Major

> Discussion in mailing  list

> When user wants to have the App name show on the screen of the they might 
> characters that are incompatible with file and directory names.
> Today when a user sets a custom name via cli create, it's use for app name 
> but also for native files and directory names (depends on platform) 
>  cordova create 'שלום'
> the value 'שלום' will be use for the cordova project path, app name, and 
> native files.
> Or another use case is config.xml, if user sets a new name  like
> <name>שלום</name>
> then runs a cordova build
> then the app name and native files will refactor with new name.
> The enhancement is to allow the developer to specify an app name without 
> affecting the native platform files.
> One proposal for config.xml is to keep backward compatibility is to use 
> attribute in 'project' in name tag like
> if attribute not specify (i.e. default) or not different from previous build 
> then do not change native plafform files or directory names.
> Use will be able to control both values like:
> <name project="HelloCordova">שלום</name>
> For the cli or platform shell script then allow to pass optional parameter 
> for projectname, if not pass then appname is use to keep backwards 
> compatibility
> CLI:
> cordova create MyCordovaFolder com.example.mycordova שלום 
> --project="HelloCordova"
> or Shell script 
> like in cordova-ios/bin/create
> Usage: $0 [--shared] [--arc] [--cli] <path_to_new_project> <package_name> 
> <project_name> [<project_template_dir>]
> project_name only affects app name, and not project files, default value 
> HelloCordova will be use unless specify like --project
> cordova-ios/bin/create projectpath com.example.myapp שלום 
> --project="myxcodeprojectname"
> Cordova CLI (metadata platform parsers) and all platforms create scripts will 
> need to be updated
