Change your name

By default, everyone can change their name in Zulip. You can write your name in any language you'd like.

Organization administrators can change anyone's name, and prevent users from changing their names. This is useful when users' names are managed via LDAP or another data source.

Change your name

{start_tabs}

{settings_tab|profile}

1. Edit the full name field.

{end_tabs}

**Note:** If you are unable to edit the full name field, check
that your organization allows name changes. Follow the steps at
[prevent users from changing their names](/help/restrict-name-and-email-changes)
to view your organization's settings.
