Interestingly, on Volume 3, Part C, 11.1.2, it is mentioned that for Advertising Data (i.e. LE devices): "A shortened name shall only contain contiguous characters from the beginning of the full name. For example, if the device name is ‘BT_Device_Name’ then the shortened name over BR/EDR could be ‘BT_Device’ while the shortened name on LE could be ‘BT_Dev’." Nothing is said on the EIR format, though (see Vol 3, Part C, 8.1.2).
