Err we already have that in Sonoma. Press F3 and move the mouse to the top of the screen.

You can even switch between them with a triple swipe on a magic trackpad...

If you can _rename_ desktops though, I've never seen how.

e.g. in Mission Control right now I have "Desktop 1", "Desktop 2", and full-screened iTerm2 on my external monitor, plus "Desktop 3" and about 6 other fullscreen apps on my laptop.

I have somewhat semantic meaning for what each of those three numbered desktops are, but it'd be nice to _name_ them.

I find it helpful to set a different wallpaper for every space. In fact, that approach has been so useful that I’ve mostly stopped wishing to rename the spaces – I can glance at the colors so much faster than I could ever read a written title anyway.
Yeah I do this too, I can't imagine not having different wallpapers. But when I'm pinning apps to desktops via the Dock it'd be nice to have the names then.
