New to Zoom...Was setting up a 1:1 meeting. The participants name did not show up in the participants panel. It showed up as "Admin". I was the Host. Not sure why the Participant showed up as "Admin". Please advise. Thank you

A participants name can be any text, it does not have to be their real name. "Admin" is just a name and does not have any permission significance in your meeting. Most likely they used that name for another meeting and just did not change it. If it bothers you then you can rename that participant.
