Can I change the display name on the certificate ?

In Microsoft certificates, will my legal name be displayed, or will only the first and last name be shown? Can I change the display name on the certificate because I don't use my first and last names together?

Hello, Linuka!

Thank you for contacting Microsoft's Community.  

Based on your inquiry, we understand you want to modify the displayed name for your certificate. We are happy to help you.

Please click on the option "Edit Displayed Name" on the right corner of the Certificate (you will get the option to edit certain information of the certificate design). This option will modify the name displayed on your Certificate, but this will not affect your legal name, or any information related to your Certification profile.
