Changing Your Sender Name in Gmail: A Step-by-Step Guide
Do you want to personalize your Gmail experience by changing your sender name? Gmail offers a simple way to do this, allowing you to make your emails more recognizable to your recipients. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to change your sender name in Gmail:
- Step 1: Open Gmail
Start by logging into your Gmail account. If you're not already logged in, enter your credentials. - Step 2: Click on the Gear Icon
In the upper-right corner of the Gmail interface, you'll find a gear icon. Click on it; this icon represents "Settings." - Step 3: Go to "See All Settings"
In the dropdown menu that appears, click on "See all settings." This will take you to the full settings page. - Step 4: Navigate to the "General" Tab
You'll see various tabs at the top of the settings page. Click on the "General" tab to access the general settings. - Step 5: Change Your Sender Name
In the "General" tab, you'll find an option labeled "Send mail as." This section displays the email addresses associated with your Gmail account. Click on "Edit Info" next to the email address for which you want to change the sender name. - Step 6: Edit Your Sender Name
A pop-up window will appear, allowing you to edit the "Name" field. Here, you can change the sender's name to your desired one. After making the desired changes, click "Save Changes."
That's it! Your sender name has been updated for the chosen email address. From now on, when you send emails from that address, your recipients will see the new sender name you've set.
Please keep in mind that while this method works as of my last knowledge update in January 2022, Gmail's interface and features may evolve over time. If there have been updates, explore the Gmail settings to locate this option.
