Azure-created DNS suffix cannot be modified.
Please refer : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-network/virtual-networks-name-resolution-for-vms-and-role-instances#azure-provided-name-resolutionIf you want to add your own custom domain for an Azure service, you could add a CNAME type DNS record like play.legacyservers.com CNAME azureservice.northeurope.cloudapp.azure.com or A type record like play.legacyservers.com A your Azure public IP address in your DNS domain provider.
You also could select to host your domain in Azure DNS, then you can manage your DNS records on Azure portal. In order to use Azure DNS for your custom domain, you must first delegate your domain to Azure DNS. Once your domain is delegated to your Azure DNS zone, you are able to configure the DNS records needed.
Delegate a domain to Azure DNS : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/dns/dns-delegate-domain-azure-dns
Use Azure DNS to provide custom domain settings for an Azure service : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/dns/dns-custom-domainKindly let us know if the above helps or you need further assistance on this issue.
