Zoom names shown in meeting

When in a meeting, I see the names of those on a computer in the meeting but only the number of those who called in. Is there a way to replace the phone number with their name. This way I don't see

Hi @lawrencej 

There are 2 options:

  • Create a list of dial-in contacts: This allows an account admin to predefine names that go with the phone number they dial-in with. So, if John always connects to the meeting with his cell, Zoom will recognize that number and show his assigned name. 
  • Manually change them through the participants window. 

Hope that helps and please make sure to mark the solution as accepted if this information is what you needed.
