Include Human-Friendly Cluster Names in Alert Notifications
Please include the human-friendly cluster/host names in Monitoring Alert Notifications (e.g. email, PagerDuty, etc) in addition to, or instead of, the less clear internal cluster/hostnames (i.e. atlas-abcdef-shard-0).

I'll go one step further: the usage of internal cluster/hostnames actively mislead our understanding of Atlas. There needs to be consistency and the ability to determine the correct name that should be used in features across the product.

Yeah, showing our custom cluster name instead of (or in addition to) the default unreadable cluster name is super helpful when you have many clusters in a given project.
Good: my-test-cluster
Bad: atlas-abc123-shard-0
