To change your Preferred name, you will need to change it through UCPath. Once you made the change, give the system 24-48 hrs for it to be updated and reflected in the system.

IT has no role in setting the name.


To change your Preferred Name:

1Login to your UCPath

2

Once logged in click on this link here or navigate yourself using the menu of the left column:

Employee Actions >>> Personal Information >>> Personal Information

3Expand Legal/Preferred Name section and click on Preferred

4

Fill in the information and click Save

If you have a middle name that you want to include, type it in the Preferred First Name field after your preferred first name. Do not type it in the Preferred Middle Name field. Reason is Google has no concept of what middle name is.

Keep in mind that it will be display in all the systems. Again, reason is because Google has no concept of what middle name is and there is nothing IT can do about it.
