samAcocuntName issue in Azure AD Domain services
This should just come down to the Azure Active Directory Connect options you have (assuming you're using that and not ADFS). First image on this article: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/connect/active-directory-aadconnect-user-signin shows the option on 'select the on-premises attribute to use as the Azure AD username' which may have just had 'firstname' selected.
Azure AD Domain Services just gets given what it's given :)
Guessing Jasjit deleted accounts/Azure AD and started again, otherwise you'd have to change them manually with PowerShell https://www.adamfowlerit.com/2016/05/wrong-domain-users-azure-active-directory/
MicrosoftHello JasjitChopra, did you make any progress investigating why account name changed?
Sorry for the late reply - but i am afraid I was not able to resolve this. I simply had to reset the whole setup and now everything is working as expected.

I`m glad you made it work afterall. Adam Fowler, have you seen this before? If Jasjit sees it again, is the reset the only option?
