Update or remove middle name in account

Hi @ginosbr,

Welcome to the Docusign Community!

We are glad to have you here and can't wait to help share as much knowledge as possible.

I am sorry to hear that your user name change was not reflected on your envelope email notifications, but I will assist you in solving the issue.

Under certain circumstances, these profile changes might take some time to be fully reflected on the application.

Are you still experiencing the same issue when sending a new envelope, without using a template?

If that is the case, the first thing to try would be temporarily changing your name again, to confirm if the issue persists.

Feel free to let us know if you need further assistance with this. 

Thank you for using Docusign, we hope you have a wonderful rest of your day! 

Best regards,

Hi there. I am experiencing the same issue, I have updated the name on my profile but my docusign ID card still shows my middle name and when emails are sent this is what the other parties receive. How do I edit my docusign ID card to delete the middle name?

Hi @Matt Dawson,

Thank you for sharing your experience.

Have you tried changing your name to something else and then switching it back to the right one?

Please let me know the results, and I will help you define what will be the best steps to take.

As always, don't hesitate to let me know if I can help with anything else in the meantime and I will lend a hand as soon as possible. 

Best regards,

Yes have changed my name and that worked fine but it’s the Docusign ID, still shows my middle name and still has this as the sender when I send contracts. How do I edit my docusign ID, not my display name?

I have the same problem. A Midle Name appears that I can't remove in any way.
And it's annoying that this goes into my client's contract, it looks really bad to have a letter that has nothing to do with my contract.

How do I open a support request?
Do I have to change plans to request a fix for an error, is that it?

If you are the recipient, you may not change the middle name, as it was set by the sender that you are not able to when sending the envelope. In that case, you should reach out to the sender and ask them to correct the envelope and remove the middle name that was provided when sending the envelope.

If you are the sender, update your profile, where the middle name should be stored. As stated above this may take some time to refresh in the system. With the correct configuration you should be able to update your middle name when signing the envelope, so the spelling you desire will be reflected on the document.

Unclear why you would be required to open a support case, as this is something that can be fixed by configuration, depending on where the middle name is taken from and if you are sender or recipient.

I have exactly the same issue and it looks extremely unprofessional - please can you provide some better support on this? I’m quite shocked that there is no customer service email or number to get in touch with, and have not been able to find a form to contact anyone with despite being a paying customer.
