I went onto a zoom meeting today, but the host laughed & said "I had a giggle at your name that came up", which wasn't my actual name!  It was f*** f*** f***ity f***.  Yikes!  How do I change it???  I've gone into my account profile, but the name in there is my actual name & I don't know where the other "name" is loaded...!

    Hi @LisaThomas22 

    I'd suggest opening the desktop app and do the following: 

    1. Go to the Home tab. 
    2. Click Join. 
    3. Enter a meeting ID and adjust the name shown there. 
    4. Join the meeting to lock that name in place, then leave when you want. 

    This should fix your weird name issue. If it doesn't, I'd need to know more about how you joined that meeting.
