User renamed on AD, name not updating in Microsoft Teams.
Hey all, hope you're all well. I've got a user who's AD account has been renamed (stephen.hawkes to steve.hawkes). This has been synced to Azure AD and reflects correctly in admin.microsoft.com ...

D0ugW This issue is resolved for me. I had tried a number of things including things suggested by Microsoft tech support (see my previous post). Another team member suggested that I sign out of Teams and sign back in.
After doing this, the display names appear correctly on all my devices.
I don't understand the mechanism for this or why "Sign Out" had different impact than "Quit", but I am glad that this nuisance behavior is fixed for me.

I have been able to fix it myself after nothing below worked.
I have removed the user License in M365 and reassigned. logged out of MS Teams and logged back in. That fixed the issue
