How do I change my name in the main portal?

[shergar]

Hi,

When I signed up, I did so quickly. Expecting to be spammed into oblivion, I didn't use my full name, but Jane Doe'd it.

I did not realise the first name/last name cannot be changed, nor that it would be used everywhere (auto generated certs, exam enrollment?)

Surely somebody can change this for me? I mean, people get married and name changes all the time. 

Can somebody point me at who I can contact to change my name?

It's about the full name as displayed in the main portal.

Oh sorry, I missed the "it's impossible" part.

Not to be mean or something, but don't people get name changes all the time (marriage, official name change for $reasons)

You should ask from those email if that can do or not. 

Another way is just create a new account in splunk.com with correct informations (but maybe it needs a new email?) and then switch to it.

Personally I have my on personal account which I use in community and certs etc. and then separate accounts for companies where I'm working.

Thank you!

That post is the about community username though. I mean the full first name + last name on the main portal ( https://www.splunk.com/en_us/my-dashboard.html )
