If you forgot your Microsoft password, there’s a process to retrieve that as well. You can provide other details of your Microsoft account to sign in. Here, look for the option that says Forget my username. If it’s been a while since you’ve used Skype/Microsoft and you really can’t remember your username to sign in in the first place, then choose More sign-in options at the login page. That’s it! Your new display name will now show up for all your Skype chats. Then click the checkmark on the right to save it. Click on your display name, and change it to whatever your want – your business name, for example. Step 3: You will now be able to edit information on your profile. Depending on the platform you are using, the Edit profile button may look a little different, but it will be there. Look to the right, where you should see a stylus icon – this is the edit button for your profile.

Step 2: You will now see your basic Skype profile info. Its a highly requested feature, but you can change the display name.
HOW TO CHANGE SKYPE NAME FROM APP PROFESSIONAL
In the main window, click on your profile picture (also, if you’re aiming for a more professional Skype identity, you may want to consider changing your pic while you’re making these others changes, depending on what you’ve chosen). Once done, click the tick beside your name. You can now go ahead and change your name.

Click the ‘Edit’ button beside your name. Now click the profile picture in the top left corner of the app and select ‘Skype profile’. In many cases, this is the only thing users really want to change, and it’s a whole lot easier than changing your account name. To change your Skype display name on a PC, launch the app and sign in with your credentials.

Your display name is the name that appears under your profile picture, the name that everyone else in Skype chat will see. If you’re less concerned about your account name and more about what other people see, though, then you can always change your display name. When finished, remember to keep your two Microsoft accounts separate and sign in or out of them as is necessary.
