Calculation item dynamic naming

I would like to have a dynamic name in a calculation item.

 

Instead of "EsteAno" as below, I'd like the name to be equal to a measure:

 

Is this possible?

 

Thank you!

    Hi webportal ,

     

    No, it's not possible. A measure's (or calculated column's, or column's) name is a constant text, existing in the json which defines everything available in the tabular model.

     

    But you could create a measure to dynamically change the visual Title  instead.

    Refer to: Dynamic Chart Titles In Power BI
