For example, product "Iphone 5" has two characteristics, "carrier", and "capacity". The default values are "verizon" and "16Gb", but when loading the product page, these default characteristics are not appended to the product name. Only when I change one characteristic, the name get updated with the characteristics. Is there a way to make sure the default characteristics are displayed with the product name?
