Hello  @danielknez  Welcome to the Canvas Community.  Thanks for posting your question.  This kind of question will need to be addressed with your school's local Canvas administrator or your school's Online Learning department.  We here in the Canvas Community wouldn't be able to make any changes to your account because we do not have access to your school's Canvas environment.  Also, your school may have policies in place for how your name is displayed within Canvas.  They may or may not be willing to change your name, so you'll want to check with them on the specifics about this.

I hope this information will be of help to you, Daniel.  Please let us know if you have any questions about the above information.
