Because you already registered for and attempted GH-600, submit a Credentials Support request to change the Legal Name on your Microsoft Learn profile; changing only the Display Name will not correct exam identity verification.
Submit the legal-name change request
- Sign in to the Microsoft Learn profile used to register for GH-600.
- Open Profile icon → Settings.
- Under Personal info, username, and URL, select the option to update your Legal Name.
- Enter your name exactly as it appears on the government-issued ID you will present for the exam.
- Because an exam has already been registered, the change requires Microsoft support approval. Select the displayed Certification/Credentials Support link and file a request.^1^
If no support link appears in Settings, open Credentials Support directly and submit an online support request.^2^
Configure the request as follows:
- Product family: Learning
- Product or Service: Microsoft Credentials
- Category: Choose the closest certification/profile or legal-name issue
- Type of Support: Professional No Charge
- Preferred contact method: Email
- Include:
- Your Learn Username, found in Learn Settings
- A concise explanation that GH-600 was revoked because the registered candidate name did not match your government-issued ID
- The exact corrected legal name
- A screenshot of the current name or any message shown in Learn Settings
Credentials Support is provided by email rather than phone.^2^
Legal Name versus Display Name
These fields serve different purposes:
- Legal Name: Used to verify identity for certification exams and must match the government-issued ID presented at the appointment.
- Display Name: Shown publicly on the Learn profile, certificates, and transcripts; changing it does not replace the exam identity name.^1^
Do not delete or create another Learn profile to work around the mismatch. Complete the support-approved Legal Name correction on the profile containing your exam and credential history.
After support confirms the change, check the candidate details during the next registration flow before submitting it. Microsoft’s registration guidance states that the Learn profile Legal Name must match the legal ID or the candidate cannot take the exam.^3^
