Description

### Steps to reproduce

1. In a thread, user replies to a message
2. User updates display name

### Outcome

#### What did you expect?
Either both change or both stay as the old one.

#### What happened instead?
The name in the timeline didn't change, but the name in the reply got updated to the new one when looking at historical events. This should be consistent.
