This is already supported. The from address can be in the form "Name <test@example.com>" or "test@example.com".

I added this to the list of guides we will add to the website https://github.com/audiobookshelf/audiobookshelf-web/issues/29#issuecomment-2090848868

Can this please be added as part of a hover-over help?
