Name Change didn’t fully work

I changed my name on my apple ID, but I still get emails from Apple addressed to my old name. Every time I login to my Apple ID it displays the correct name, but I still receive emails from Apple with the wrong name? It's the same with my old address, when I’m billed for subscriptions on the App Store or with extra iCloud storage.

My iCloud emails go through under the wrong name When I am not someone’s contact my emails go through under the wrong name. I legally changed my last name 3 years ago from ‘Hunt’ to ‘Kendall’ and need it to be Kendall for business emails etc on everyone else’s phones too. Thank you. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

How do I change my name on my Apple ID? I’ve been getting emails from Apple such as a receipt from an app purchase, things like that. However instead of it saying dear Deja ( my name ), it says dear Lisa (my mother’s name). I’m not sure how or why her name would be anywhere in my information but it’s a little confusing. I’d like this to be fixed but I can’t figure out what to do. I’ve looked it up and all 2 answers say to make sure your apple if information is correct and it is correct. Im also having trouble getting in touch with apple support. I think I’ll just have to go into AT&T and see if they can help me because there is no Apple Store near me. [Re-Titled by Moderator]
