Threads prototypes custom display names and cover images for profiles | TechCrunch
Briefly

The new features being developed for Instagram Threads aim to enhance user experience by allowing customization such as display names and cover images, fostering individual identity.
Currently, Threads pulls display names directly from Instagram, limiting user freedom. Allowing display name changes would enable users to align their Threads identity with their X usernames.
The potential addition of cover images would give users a chance to personalize their profiles, emulating features offered by competitors like X and Bluesky.
With over 100 million daily active users, Meta seems poised to allow Threads more independence from Instagram, appealing to users seeking a distinct platform experience.
