character nameplates

To my knowledge the DM's nor players have a way to make nameplates visible to the rest of the players in a game. This would make it easier for tables to keep track of NPC's or even new PC's names. 

Hi Holton K.,  Could you clarify what you are asking for? Nameplates where? On the tokens?

This would make it easier for tables to keep track of NPC's or even new PC's names.  While editing the token there are three dots on top next to the name. If you enable the "SEE" Permission, all of your players will see the nameplate of that token if the GM has enabled it (checkbox next to token name). YES, this can be confusing at first and you are not the first to note that, but it has always been that way...

You can also se the default globally for a Game so when you create a new token they will inherit default permissions.  You must exit the game, then next to the Launch button choose Settings, Game Settings. Then Expand "Game Default Settings", Page Details. There you can set your Token Defaults, Player Permissions
