[MCPE-159284] Can no longer give an Allay a name

Can no longer give an Allay a name using name tag. It simply holds it.

Recreate: Spawn allay. Put name on name tag. Use on allay.

Potential fix? Allow name tag to be used to name allay while crouching. Make a special name tag for allay by combining name tag with amethyst shard.

Does this only happen on a realm or does the same issue occur in a local world?

This issue also happens in a locally created world.

Hi, have you tried giving to the allay any different item than name tag first?

If not, try spawning an allay, then give it any item e.g. chest or any plank, put the name on name tag and try naming it by clicking on the allay with a name tag in your hand.

This appears to resolve the issue. I had originally just given the Allay a spare name tag to hold and it wouldn’t work, but this time gave it a wooden plank to hold and it allowed me to name the Allay. Thank you.
