    You update your Legal name on your Microsoft Learn profile under Settings https://learn.microsoft.com/users/me/settings

    If you have an exam booked, you will be shown a message and link to contact Credentials support https://learn.microsoft.com/credentials/support/help#how-to-submit-a-support-request

    To update the legal name that is required for registering Microsoft certification exams, the legal name must be changed in the Microsoft Learn profile and, if needed, through official support:

    1. Go to the Microsoft Learn profile and sign in.
    2. Open profile settings. If the legal name is missing or incorrect, the system will redirect to add or edit it when scheduling an exam.
    3. Ensure the legal name exactly matches the government-issued ID (for example, driving license) that will be presented at the exam. If the name does not match, the proctor can deny the exam.
    4. If the legal name field is locked, incorrect, or caused a previous exam denial, submit a support request to Microsoft Credentials Support so the name can be corrected before scheduling or taking another exam.

    If the name format (for example, multiple parts or special characters) causes validation issues, contact support using the Microsoft Credentials Support / Learning help channel so the profile can be corrected before the exam date.
