How To Change Name On Twitter
People will be able to recognise you on Twitter in one of two ways: either via your handle, which is your user name and begins with the well-known sign “@,” or through your display name. Your display name is the name that people see at the very top of your profile and should either be your actual name or the name you want people to connect with your Twitter account that is written in “simple English.”
You are free to alter your display name whenever you choose, and all of your followers will be updated with the change immediately. Check out our post on “How to change your Twitter username on a computer or mobile device” if you are interested in changing your Twitter handle, which is the one that begins with “@.”
