title: Cannot get TimeZone to show long name instead of abbreviation (Xamarin Android)
body: <p>I'm trying to get the long name for the timezone from <code>System.TimeZone</code>. This is how I'm trying to do it:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Console.WriteLine(System.TimeZone.CurrentTimeZone.DaylightName);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And the result that i'm getting in console is </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>EST</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>But what I need is the long name:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Eastern Standard Time</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I looked into C# documentation (<a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.timezone.currenttimezone(v=vs.110).aspx" rel="nofollow">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.timezone.currenttimezone(v=vs.110).aspx</a>) and noticed that the .Net library is returning what I need but for some reason Xamarin (mono) just gives me the <strong>abbreviation</strong>.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way around that?</p>
