Overview
While it is important to include your legal first name for your personal information account, if you would like to be referred to by a different name, you can set your preferred name to something different. Make sure you indicate your Preferred Name in Experience (Employee Dashboard) to ensure the right name displays in all system-generated information, if your first name and preferred first name are different.
How to
Update your preferred name
1. Log into Experience at https://experience.elluciancloud.com/fmc412
2. If prompted, select whether you are a Student or Employee.
3. Click My Info in the top navigation bar (on the left near View All Cards)
4. Click Update Contact Information and/or Manage Personal Information.
5. In the Personal Details section, click Edit.
6. Your First Name should be your legal first name. If your preferred name is different from your legal first name, enter it into the Preferred First Name field.
7. Click Update. It can take up to 24 hours for the system to update your name.
