-In addition, you can also use the `version` property to override font version. The version number should follow [SemVer](https://semver.org/), like being `1.0.0`.
+Additionally, the `namingOverride` section now supports a `menuNameMap` configuration property. This property allows for the customization of menu names based on specific attributes related to the font's style and characteristics. The `menuNameMap` configuration is structured as follows:
+
+- `weight`: A mapping of menu weight numbers to their corresponding names.
+- `width`: A mapping of menu width numbers to their corresponding names.
+- `slope`: A mapping of menu slope values (`"normal"`/`"italic"`/`"oblique"`) to their corresponding names.
+- `weightShort`: A mapping of menu weight numbers to short names.
+- `widthShort`: A mapping of menu width numbers to short names.
+- `slopeShort`: A mapping of menu slope values (`"normal"`/`"italic"`/`"oblique"`) to short names.
+
+You are allowed to provide override names only for the values that you want to have custom names. Any values not specified in these mappings will use the default names.
+
+For example, the following configuration:
+
+```toml
+[buildPlans.IosevkaCustom.namingOverride.menuNameMap.width]
+7 = "Expanded"
+[buildPlans.IosevkaCustom.namingOverride.menuNameMap.widthShort]
+7 = "Exp"
+```
+
+... will name width 7 to "Expanded" in full, and "Exp" in short.
