Can I check, did you make sure you had logged out of the community and then after changing your name log back in using this link: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/plugins/common/feature/oauth2sso/sso_login_redirect?
Using the usual sign in button would eventually pull in any changes you made to your MSA profile but only after the session cache expired (usually 2 hours)
Allen Yes I didn't, in fact I just tried again very carefully, in case there is a subtle problem in what I did.
1. Went this thread page by clicking on the link in the email notification I received of your post, and logged out. Confirmed I did see Sign In when I clicked on the thread page link again.
2. Went to the MS account page you mentioned first, clicking on it in the email notification I received of your post - changed my name back to Don Awalt, entered the capctha code, and saved. Verified I saw the name change, and for good measure I logged out.
3. Clicked on the second link you gave me just now, to log in to the community, using the link in the email notification I received of your post. After logging in (I confirmed it is the same email address I log in with, for both), as you can see here and if I click on my avatar in the top right corner, the name is still Don Awalt Awalt.
