Change the sender's name in Mail.

Hi, I bought an iPhone 13 and picked a name that was not so handy. So I changed the name of my phone. But when I send mails it still shows my old name. Can some one please help to change it :).

iPad Air, iPadOS 15

Change the sender's name in Mail. I bought an iPhone 13 last year and use the Mail app. My phone initially had a different name, and when I send an email now, it still picks up that older name. Because it's quite a strange name, I'd like to change it. Sometimes it does pick up the new name, and other times it doesn't. I haven't figured out exactly when it does and when it doesn't. I've already changed my Apple ID, but this isn't the solution. It would be nice to get some help here. Thank you!

How to change incorrect account name in Messages on iPhone? Hi All, I hope someone can point me in the right direction. Below is an image of messages screen on my iPhone. It shows EL (Edina) as the account. This is not correct and I cannot seem to be able to change this. I am not sure how this occurred, but at some stage in the past Edina shared Apple TV or something as part of family sharing - Not sure if this is when this occurred. Would appreciate help to change this to my name in messages account.

My Apple ID old Email still appears even after updating it in the Apple ID account This is my very first post and I am somewhat of a rookie. I am using an iPhone 15 and needed to change my Apple ID e-mail address. I searched for help and the web said to go to settings, my name, sign in and security and edit the e-mail which I did. However the old e-mail still appears. I tried a restart of my phone. Find My phone got turned off (I have since turned it back on). E-mail below is no longer in service. How do I change this? Please help the rookie. Thanks in advance! [Edited by Moderator]
