      Hello,

      I would like to suggest a quality-of-life feature for the bookmarks bar to improve customization and clean look.

      Current Situation:
      Right now, if we want a clean bookmark bar, we have to delete the bookmark's name entirely to keep only the icon. However, when we do this and hover over the icon, it only shows the long, messy URL instead of a clean name.

      The Proposal:
      Add a second name field in the "Edit Bookmark" (Editar favorito) window (for example: "Hover Name" or "Tooltip Name").

      How it would work:

      1. The user can leave the main "Name" field blank (so only the website icon appears on the bar).
      2. The user types a short nickname in this new second field.
      3. When hovering the mouse over the icon, this clean nickname appears as a small tooltip popup, instead of the full URL address.

      Why this is useful:
      It allows users to have a fully minimalist bookmarks bar (icons only) without losing the ability to easily identify what each icon is at a glance.

      Thank you!
