Requesting a new display name:
- A display name must consist of a first name, or nickname, and the legal last name that exists in a source system (SIS for students, PeopleSoft for faculty/staff).
- If the requested display name is to include a middle name, that middle name must also be in a source system.
- Requests for shortened names (e.g. James = Jim, Kimberly = Kim) can be completed by following Campus HR's Preferred Name instructions. After that is complete, come back to the IdentiKey Manager to choose your shortened display name.
- One word display names are not permitted.
Step
Go to the IdentiKey Manager website (https://identikey.colorado.edu/) and select Change My Display Name.
