Please show us the command you used¹ to do that, so we know what
exactly you are talking about, because as previously discussed
there's a lot of different things that you like to call "partition
labels".
If we take that literally that would be a GPT partition name, but
you've used this same terminology before and meant a filesystem
label.
My only question it will those partition names survive lvcreating an 11T lvm
out of these and 2 more 2T gigastones.
Assuming you meant partition name the first time as well, nothing
you do other than a disk wipe or re-name should alter those
partition names.
But your chosen partition names don't make a lot of sense to me.
You've picked names based on the type/manufacturer of device so you
may as well have just used the names from /dev/disk/by-id/… which
already have that information and are already never going to change.
I don't know why you want to complicate matters.
Will the by-id string fit in the space reserved for a label?That IF
there was a connection between the /dev/sdc that udev assigns and
anything in this list:

I dare you to find the disk that udev calls sdc in the above wall of text.
Why can't you understand that I want a unique label for all of this
stuff that is NOT a wall of HEX numbers no one can remember. Its not
mounted, so blkid does NOT see it.
If instead you put filesystems on these partitions and labelled
*those*, well, no, LVM goes under filesystems so those filesystems
and their labels (and contents) are not long for this world.
I have not dealt with an lvm in about 15+ years trying it once
when it first came out with a high disaster rating then.
I hope you are putting a level of redundancy under that LVM or are
using the redundancy features of LVM (which you need to go out of
your way to do). Otherwise by default what you'll have is not
redundant and a device failure will lose at least the contents of
that device, possibly more.
Regards,
Andy
¹ and while you are there, maybe a post-it note with "I will show
the exact command I used any time I write to debian-user" stuck to
the top of the display of the screen you use to compose emails
would help, because basically every thread you post here lacks
that information.
