Description

Expected behavior

When you name a zombified piglins in vanilla, the mob will never despawn under any circumstances.

Observed/Actual behavior

The 4 zombified piglins that were named despawned.

Steps/models to reproduce

Paper Bug Report.zip
The file attached is a litematica file that I am using for the farm.

  1. Place 4 named piglins on the 4 glass edges
  2. Stand on the center trapdoor
  3. Shoot a zombified piglin to anger them all
  4. wait, they will eventually despawn. In my experience, it took 10s to 10 minutes.
