O365 Groups Prefix Policy
Looking for some clarification on expected behaviour of the O365 Groups Naming Policy. Using details via https://support.office.com/en-gb/article/Office-365-Groups-Admin-help-3f780e8e-61aa-4287-830d...

Hi Nicholas, I have tested this and I have the same issue. Thank you for notifying because this will also become a serious problem for some implementations that I am working on.
However, what seems is that it lists it with the new name but I can still see the AD Name when e.g. I want to share a site with the affected security group. In that case it shows the name without the prefix. When I search for groups using the prefixes it only shows the Office 365 groups so it appears to be a display name issue.

PS: when I retrieve the groups using Powershell then it shows the original name from AD as well.
