    How to use your real name in the forums

    For those of you who want your posts to show up using some other name to your gamertag...
    • Go to your user control panel (by clicking your gamertag in the top right corner of the site)
    • Fill in your name in the About tab
    • Under Site Options, select "Enable DisplayName"
    Your gamertag will still show up inside your gamercard, but now your real name will be visible above it.

    I'm going to kick myself...

    But where the heck do you find that in your profile page?  I only found two links, neither of those having those options...

    That's because that post is over two years old and the site has been redesigned. You now use your creator name you chose when you signed up. If you set that to your real name, you get to use your real name. If you didn't use your real name, then you get to use whatever you did put in.
