I have set my new name everywhere I can in the AppleID settings but the old name is still showing up in this place, and maybe in other places which I haven’t seen yet. But how can I get my chosen name to show up here?

(for clarity, this is the profile picture selection on iPadOS)

Solution: The solution for me was that I had to change my name in the contacts.

    Oh, I meant the underlying account name itself. The account that you log in with if you don’t use a QR code.

      I think your only option is to contact support for that. I think I remember reading that it is possible with their help.

      Currently, there are no way to change it. I know the pain, I have a almost two decade old cringeworthy name.
