How do I change the names of the currencies?

I would like to customize the way currency names are displayed in the currency switcher. Currently it shows something like:
“USD – United States (US) dollar”

However, I would prefer a shorter version, such as:
“USD – US dollar”

Is there a filter, function, or hook I can use to change these names programmatically (e.g. via functions.php or a custom plugin), without editing the plugin files directly?

Thanks in advance!
