 Is there any way clients could know where notes are coming from? Perhaps an optional field that shows which client a note originated from? 

Would be a nice piece of info, however it’s displayed on a note. 
 Nostur let you see from which client a note is posted from and let’s you add the same tag to to your notes.

I don’t know if all the clients support this, though. 
 I'd rather all people not know. If I want to make my own app and keep in stealthy for instance. 
 Hence optional 
 derp 
 I have seen this before.  Some past coworkers used it in their speech... What is this "derp" that you speak of... 
 When I’m feeling dumb haha 
 Yes, there is a client tag for this you can set on events (notes) when broadcasted. How noStrudel displays this:

 Lume will also support it in the next update https://files.catbox.moe/lpdsek.png 
 agreed 
 Clients can always lie, but NIP-89 defines a "client" tag that can be added to notes
I added support for it in noStrudel recently 
 I guess 
 Use your own coded tag if privacy is important... I suppose anyone can decrypt everything or just follow and read... So much for "your notes"...
