I'm currently also looking into changing a office 365 group name. i'm aware of the powershell with the PrimarySmtpaddress paramiter. however, i'm also aware that this does not necessarily change the email address but sets the new defined email address as an alias. so my main question for clarity would be if i wear to run this command and add the new email address as an alias, will this change the default/display address of the group to the new email address? so the new email address displays as the default one but the onmicrosoft one is still in the background making everything work?

 

Thank you in advance for any assistance
