greeting

[EmblenCirre]

This program greets me as "Emblen" which I find annoying since this is my surname.  Please change to Ms. Emblen

thank you

Hi there, @EmblenCirre ...

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "This program".  Normally, if you want your name changed in Canvas, you may be able to do this on your own, or you may need to reach out to your school's Online Learning / eLearning / Distance Learning department to get this changed.  Please see this documentation for further details:

• How do I edit my profile in my user account as a student?
• How do I edit my profile in my user account as an instructor?

Make sure you are reading the light blue box at the top of either Guide.

If you are asking about your username displayed here in the Canvas Community, you can click on your avatar image at the top right corner of any page here in the Community, and then click on the "My settings" link.  You should be taken to a screen where you can modify your "Username" field.

Hope this helps a bit.  Let Community members know if we can help further...thanks!
