Teams - renamed user still displayed with old name
I renamed user in 365 admin centre, the new name is correctly displayed in Teams admin centre but - in the Teams, the old name is still used everywhere even for new posts, when adding to new team etc...
Leaving a current reply to anyone finding this thread since a lot of people are having this issue as part of Skype to Teams conversion. The issue is often best resolved by signing out of Teams on the client that is seeing the incorrect display names. Signing in/out of the account that has it's display name changed won't fix it for everyone else. Best solution is to make the change on the account, give it a little time to propagate on the Microsoft back-end, then anyone else who is still seeing the old name should sign out/in on Teams.
