    To use the correct legal name for Azure certification, the legal name in the Microsoft Learn profile must match the name on the government-issued ID used at the exam.

    Update the legal name in Microsoft Learn as follows:

    1. Sign in to the Microsoft Learn profile that is used for certification.
    2. Go to Settings in the Learn profile.
    3. In the Personal info, username, and URL section, follow the instructions to update the Legal Name so it matches the ID.
    4. If an exam is already registered or the portal shows a message that legal name changes require support, follow the link provided there to contact Certification Support and request the legal name correction.

    If the portal directs to Certification Support or if the change is blocked because an exam is already scheduled, open a ticket with the Credentials Support team using the guidance under How to contact support and select the option for updating legal name.
