In this video, we look at How To Change Your Name During A Zoom Call / Rename Yourself In a Zoom Meeting. It's easy and we demonstrate it step by step.

Getting your name right is important, particularly for much more formal calls, so that others know who you are on the Zoom app / Zoom call, especially if you don't have your video turned on and you don't have a profile picture.

There maybe different reasons why you want to change your name during a Zoom call or rename yourself in a Zoom cloud meeting. For many people, Zoom is both used for informal calls like with friends and family but also for much more formal calls, like for business, schooling, students and more. Sometimes when we join a live Zoom call with others, we realise that our name is just not appropriate and needs changing quickly and to prevent embarrassment!
