Hi @Halhad, welcome to the Zoom Community!

Zoom is aware of this issue and investigating the cause and a resolution. As a workaround, meeting participants can manually change their display names. If you're the host of the meeting, ensure that you have allowed participants to rename themselves in the meeting settings.

I hope this helps!
