Default Renaming a Macro

I made myself a nice little macro for all my documents and got it into the
Formatting toolbar. The name I gave it is 11 characters long. But the
button on the toolbar has an much longer name, to wit
"Normal.NewMacros.MyMacroxxx", which takes up an ungodly amount of space.
Is there a way to shorten the name that displays there? Anything beyond the
name of my macro is not very helpful.

Default Renaming a Macro

With the Tools Customize dialog open, right click the toolbar entry and
change the name to anything you like
