How to change name on whatsapp instead of mail id
On WhatsApp, you can't change your name directly from the app. However, you can change your name by updating your profile information on the WhatsApp web or desktop version. Here's how:
Method 1: Update Profile Information on WhatsApp Web/Desktop
- Open WhatsApp Web or WhatsApp Desktop on your computer.
- Click on the three dots or the gear icon on the top right corner of the screen.
- Select "Settings" or "Account" from the dropdown menu.
- Click on "Profile" or "Account Info".
- Update your name in the "Name" field.
- Click "Save" to save the changes.
Method 2: Update Profile Information on Mobile App (Using a Third-Party App)
- Install a third-party app like "WhatsApp Name Changer" or "WhatsApp Profile Changer" from the Google Play Store.
- Open the app and grant the necessary permissions.
- Enter your WhatsApp account credentials (username and password) to connect to your WhatsApp account.
- Update your name in the app.
- The app will update your name on WhatsApp.
Important Notes:
- Changing your name on WhatsApp will not affect your WhatsApp account or your contacts.
- If you're using a third-party app, make sure to only use a reputable app and be cautious of any potential risks or malware.
- WhatsApp may not allow you to change your name if you've already changed it recently or if you're using a custom name that's not approved by WhatsApp.
Remember that WhatsApp has strict guidelines for profile names, and they may reject names that are offensive, inappropriate, or violate their terms of service.
