# NSPrefPaneIconLabel

The name of a preference pane displayed beneath the preference pane icon in the System Preferences app.

## Discussion

For long names, you can split the name into two lines by including a newline character (`‘\n’`) in the string. If you omit this key, System Preferences uses the [`CFBundleName`](/documentation/BundleResources/Information-Property-List/CFBundleName) key for the name.
