My "rename" will not stick!!!

[Stumped123]

My profile has my correct name but each time I join a weekly meeting it shows the first names of myself and my partner, probably created years ago for a one time social event.  I "rename" it every week and choose "remember" yet every single week it defaults back to these two names.

Please help!!

Welcome to the Zoom Community, @Stumped123.

Changing your Display Name within a meeting only charges it for the duration of the meeting, as you have discovered. 

To make a persistent change, log in at https://zoom.us/profile and click the Edit link to the far right:

The profile editor will appear where you can make numerous changes, including Display Name which is always used as the default.

If your rename would not stick try saving changes properly check file permissions and restart the program to the device it might be a glitch.
