Description

Describe the bug

I'm using the generated React components of Stencil Output React inside a Storybook instance running with React, everything works perfectly but when I click to check the component code it appears as follows:

<forwardRef>
  Button
</forwardRef>

The correct view should be:

<MyButton>
  Button
</MyButton>

I haven't found anything that could help me with this, especially since these wrappers are automatically generated by the Stencil and I have no way of modifying the output.

Can anyone help me?

Research direction
Investigate how Storybook's source viewer retrieves component display names. Focus on the implementation of forwardRef handling in the addon docs or the source loader. Check if there is a way to preserve the original component name when wrapping in forwardRef. Consider exploring the use of React's displayName property. Review linked discussions and related issues for potential solutions.
