How do I correct my iCloud name?

My daughter helped try to set up my iPhone but spelt my last name by accident with a D instead of an S how do I set it up correctly by changing my name spelled right?

Depends on exactly where it was spelled wrong.


If the display name is wrong, you can, on your iPhone, go to Settings ➜ Account ➜ Personal Information ➜ Name and correct it there.


If it was spelled wrong for the iCloud email address (yourname@icloud.com), then that cannot be changed unfortunately.
