I'm Ann, But Siri Thinks I'm Margaret
I just installed macOS Sierra, and so far I'm liking it a lot. However, for some reason Siri is calling me Margaret. How do I convince her I'm Ann?

Hi Margaret 😉
Siri on the Mac is a new feature and I haven't had time to test it yet but I suspect that it gets your name from Contacts. Try opening Contacts and then on the "Card" menu click "Go to My Card" -- if it goes to your information and it is correct, then I am wrong in where it gets the name. If it isn't your card or that menu item isn't active, manually navigate to your card and then on the Card menu click "Make This My Card."
Hi, FoxFifth... I have the same problem but my card information is right and Siri keeps calling me by the wrong name, an very old name. How can I fix that? Thank you!

You may want to try all 5 steps in the following: http://smallbusiness.chron.com/change-siri-calls-75688.html
I tried, but this steps are to Siri in iPhone, and my issue is in the Mac Os Sierra. I've changed my nickname already, but I had to change the nickname inside the wrong card which isn't in contacts app. I changed it through Siri. The truth is: The contact card that Siri think it's me do not exist in contact app. I have just one contact in my mac who it's me, which it is defined as My Card. I have no idea what's going on. Even my iCloud account do not have the contact card which Siri thinks that it's me.
Just for your better understanding: My real name in "My Card" is Paul, but when I ask Siri "Siri, who am I?" it shows me another contact card called Joseph whom do not exist in my system, as I said before.
