Here are the guidelines for the maximum number of avatars permitted to prevent excessive cognitive load.
Avatar group is limited to three entities. For groups larger than three, only two avatars are displayed. The additional avatars are represented by a numeric avatar with the text +N (where N is the number of remaining avatars beyond two).
[Left] Three avatars vs [Right] More than three avatars
Note: To display the additional entities that are not visible upfront, a popover with the full names of those entities is shown when you hover over the numeric avatar.

Selection avatar group is limited to six entities to facilitate data filtering and alleviate cognitive overload. For groups larger than three, only two avatars are displayed. The additional avatars are represented by a numeric avatar with the text +N (where N is the number of remaining avatars beyond two).
[Left] Six avatars vs [Right] More than six avatars
Note: To view additional entities not visible upfront, click the numeric avatar to display a popover with a checklist of their full names.

Round avatar groups are designed to facilitate an interactive and visually cohesive representation of individual members within a group. In contrast, square avatars are ideal for presenting the group as a unified entity.
It is recommended to use selection avatar group for fewer entities, and select for a larger number of options.
While the popover’s width is flexible and can vary, it is advisable to maintain a size that is equal to or larger than the avatar group.

In case of overflow, the items will get truncated and can be viewed inside a tooltip on hover.

In an avatar group, you can add a suffix to an entity’s name that appears in tooltips and popovers.
Note: Adding a suffix for disabled states is recommended to keep users informed.
