Item display name is not accepting special character

Hello friends, I have a requirement where I need to enter ( ) special character on display name of item but special character is being converted into encoded character as below. I found this issue in Sitecore 9.2 & 9.3 version.

                  

 However, it is working in lower version. After trying some workaround, finally, I raised a Sitecore ticket and Sitecore support team has accepted that it is a bug in 9.2 & 9.3 version and the issue is fixed in Sitecore 10.0 version.

 If you want this feature in Sitecore 9.2 /9.3 then raise a support ticket to get available hot fix for your respective version. I got below hot fix for Sitecore 9.2 version. 

After getting hot-fix, file. Follow below steps to install hot fix.
