When I log in to my Microsoft account and view my devices, I would like to change the names or add nicknames to help me keep them straight. Is there a way to do this within my account?

    Hello I'm Rey

    The only way is to deactivate Office 365 installation from your account, and then change your users’ computer name. Once you reactivate Office 365, you’ll be able to see the updated computer name on your Office 365 account.
