How is the current method confusing? You get to see the number and who made it just fine, the only possible confusing part is that it uses the plural form of the name. It gives you the name of the item when you choose to make it in the first place (And I'd hope you're not just putting in random recipes anyway with them making all recipes plainly visible on the lodestone). The only possible source of confusion is if you're passing by someone making an item that has a funny plural name, but does this really need a change for that? It's not like it's any of your business in the first place.

I'm sorry, but I just don't see how it's a headache to anyone... except you I guess.
