Hello,
My filter is not returning the Epic Name. Each issue has an Epic Link, but no name. Any ideas as to why?
Thank you!
The Epic Name field is an attribute used only in the Epic issue type. The name of the parent Epic is not stored in the Epic's child issues. Only the parent Epic key is stored in the child, and that is in the Epic Link field. The UI automatically transforms that field to display the related Epic Name when your are view the child issue.
Also note that the Epic Name field is being deprecated. Refer to

And the Epic Link field is being deprecated. Refer to

Hi @Resignola, Kelly The Epic name field is usually used in Epic issue types and looking at the JQL results here, it seems that the issues are of Story type.
You'll be able to see the Epic name if the JQL results contain Epics and when those Epics have Epic name filled.
To add to Trudy's answer, if you need to see Epic data on the child level, you could...
Then you could add them as a column in your search results
