Their is a setting within options (location depends upon version of Money
you are using) that will totally turn off the replacing of downloaded names
with user altered names.

I'm having a problem with Money where it automatically adds a new payee alias
name anytime I change the payee. This is creating problems for me,
especially for generic entries like deposits into my checking account or
transfers between accounts. I frequently change the "payee" to indicate what
sort of deposit or transfer the transaction relates to. The next time Money
sees a transaction from that Payee, it automatically uses the last payee
entry.

I know there is a list of excluded words, and I suppose I can resolve this
problem by adding other words, but I thought that Money previously asked me
before adding an alias. I searched help, hoping to find a setting that would
let me tweak this feature, but couldn't find anything. What's the best way
of resolving this issue?
