    Log into your Microsoft account on this link https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2196003

    There, you should be able to change your name.

    This is just a display name that appears on your account.

    To update your name on Microsoft services, you typically need to access your account settings. Here’s how you can do it:

    1. Sign in to your Microsoft account.
    2. Go to your profile settings.
    3. Look for the option to update your personal information, including your display name.
    4. Save the changes once you have updated your name.

    If you are being directed to a business support page and you are not a business user, make sure you are logged into the correct personal account. If you continue to face issues, consider reaching out to Microsoft support for further assistance.
