    @Abdullah AbuHaimed

    Did you try to change the display name from admin center or EAC?

    admin center > Users > Active users > Manage contact information:
    37598-607.png

    Then we have to wait for a while, and the display name will be changed successfully when check again:

    For your reference: Change a user's display name.
