That’s it! Your new display name will now show up for all your Skype chats. Then click the checkmark on the right to save it. Click on your display name, and change it to whatever your want – your business name, for example. Step 3: You will now be able to edit information on your profile. Depending on the platform you are using, the Edit profile button may look a little different, but it will be there. Look to the right, where you should see a stylus icon – this is the edit button for your profile. Step 2: You will now see your basic Skype profile info. In the main window, click on your profile picture (also, if you’re aiming for a more professional Skype identity, you may want to consider changing your pic while you’re making these others changes, depending on what you’ve chosen). In many cases, this is the only thing users really want to change, and it’s a whole lot easier than changing your account name. Your display name is the name that appears under your profile picture, the name that everyone else in Skype chat will see.


If you’re less concerned about your account name and more about what other people see, though, then you can always change your display name. When finished, remember to keep your two Microsoft accounts separate and sign in or out of them as is necessary.
