If you have several names but do not use all of them publicly, you can select your preferred name spelling in the user account management portal of the Regional Computing Center (RRZ): https://account.uni-hamburg.de
If you have changed your first or last name, the name should change the next time you log in.
Unfortunately, errors occasionally occur when changing names, such as:
- Change only in STiNE: Data in STiNE are not shared with other IT systems, so your new name will not be saved in your user ID.
- No change to the display name: A user ID contains separate data fields for first and last names. The display name is another field and must also be changed manually.
- No change to email address: Your personal email address is made up of the components of your name. If you change your name, this must also be done manually.
