my friend named a villager “curry” and so we put him in an underground house we used a name tag to call him “curry” . he had a bed light (not natural sunlight) and a lecturn however we went to our handmade villager / town to get emaralds but when we got back he had despawned . i don’t have evidence of him despawning as i didn’t record it just tweeted if it happened to anyone else.

I've experienced the same exact problem in Minecraft for the Nintendo Switch but I promise you, it gets worse. My horses have despawned, my zombie pigmen have despawned, my iron golems have despawned, and so have my villagers. The only group in an area large enough to permit despawning is the villagers because they are in a village. I put extra lights and protection in and around this village so I know they were not killed by monsters. All of the despawned creatures except for most of the iron golems had name tags on them.
