When provisioning a new Fabric SQL Database, after typing in the name I want, what I get is that name PLUS some random GUID characters. This just seems wrong. Nobody likes to have their stuff renamed.

As I understand it by someone from Microsoft in the Fabric Community, this was done to ensure a unique name across the entirety of Microsoft Fabric.

It would be nice if that was NOT a requirement. Maybe you can make it like Fabric Warehouses where it is the combination of the Tenant, Workspace, and Data Warehouse name that needs to be unique.
