is there a way of changing the "host" and "admin" account display names to something more normal and friendly?

 

Thanks,

Mike

 Yes - but it requires direct database modifications, which I don't recommend. What I would recommend is to create a new User Account and assign it the administrator role, and a new Host account with more friendly names.
