🥰 需求描述 | Feature Description
Human-readable conversation exports currently use fixed User and Assistant speaker labels.
Some users give their AI persona a specific name and want that name to appear in exported transcripts. A custom user label is also useful when exported conversations are shared inside a team, where the human contributor should be identifiable.
This request concerns export presentation only. It should not rename anything in Gemini's UI or change the underlying user / assistant roles in machine-readable JSON.
🧐 解决方案 | Proposed Solution
Add a compact Speaker names section to the existing export dialog, alongside the current font-size and image-width preferences.
Speaker names
User label [ User ]
AI label [ Assistant ]
Recommended behavior:
- Default to the existing localized
User and Assistant labels.
- Let users override either field for the current export, for example
Erik and a named AI persona.
- Remember the chosen values as export preferences for future exports.
- Treat an empty or whitespace-only value as the localized default.
- Apply the labels consistently to Markdown, PDF, and image conversation exports.
- Keep JSON role values unchanged.
- Keep the fields hidden or disabled for export types where speaker labels do not apply, such as standalone Deep Research documents.
- Escape user-provided values appropriately in Markdown and HTML output.
The export dialog is the preferred location because this is export-specific presentation metadata and the dialog already contains related controls such as font size and image width.
🔄 替代方案 | Alternatives Considered
- Popup settings: Rejected because the preference is only meaningful while exporting and would be difficult to discover later.
- Rename the roles globally in Gemini: Out of scope and could interfere with DOM role detection.
- Ask for names on every export without remembering them: More repetitive for users who consistently use the same names.
- Post-process exported files manually: Possible today, but inconvenient and inconsistent across Markdown, PDF, and image exports.

Suggested placement in the existing export dialog:
┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Export Conversation │
│ │
│ ○ Markdown ○ PDF ○ Image ○ JSON │
│ │
│ Speaker names │
│ ┌─────────────────┐ ┌─────────────────┐ │
│ │ User │ │ Assistant │ │
│ └─────────────────┘ └─────────────────┘ │
│ │
│ [format-specific font size / width] │
│ │
│ Cancel Export │
└─────────────────────────────────────────┘
Acceptance criteria:
- Existing exports remain unchanged when defaults are used.
- Custom names appear in every human-readable conversation export path.
- JSON continues to use stable role identifiers.
- Values persist across export-dialog sessions and can be reset by clearing the fields.
- Tests cover defaults, custom values, blank fallback, escaping, persistence, and all affected export formats.
