RE: Taking away display names is HORRIBLE.
Something weird happened to me. I'm still running 14.0.8117.416. I had changed my first and last name to the same display name I always had back when I tried the 2011 beta, cause I was anticipating this. But one of my friends who recently updated to 2011 made fun of me cause he thought I put my (very long) full name there.
I told him about the display name thing with the new version, but I thought somehow I had forgotten to change my full name, since he was still seeing it. I went to my Live profile, and sure enough, the display name I had changed a long time ago was still there. I changed my first/last names just to try, but my friend still sees my full name (with the new display name in parenthesis after it). I don't know of any other place where you can change your name. Heck, I don't even think I ever put my full whole name ever, but I must have at some point, I guess. Don't know why I would have done it though.
So my question is, where in the world could WLmessenger be getting my full name from?
