I have a polymorphic relationship and in my database i have one field called entity_type where the namespaces are saved ( models namespace for the polymorphic relationship ) like that normally : App\Models\MyModelName;

Is there any way to use polymorphic relationship without the full FQDN, I would like to save only MyModelName instead of App\Models\MyModelsName

You can map these models to what ever you would like to so you could shorten their names to what ever you like. There is a method named morphMap and enforceMorphMap (which calls morphMap) on Relation that allows you to map these classes to a shorter name:

Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Relations\Relation::enforceMorphMap([
    'post' => 'App\Models\Post',
    ...
]);

You can add that code to the boot method of a Service Provider

you can't save on the model names in polymorphic relationship...

Laravel stores the model name with its namespace in other to avoid conflicts with Models which might have thesame name
