I have confirmed with @TeamYouTube that they were the ones that restored my channel back to me. So credit where credit is due. It took a while and the whole process is far from perfect, but at the end of the day they gave it back to me with very little damage. Thank you
I think it just reverted to whatever Gmail had it listed as when they recovered it. But I went in manually and changed it back. Not a huge deal, I never really hid my name anyways.
