# How to Rename Yourself During a Meeting?

> Change your display name during a DingTalk meeting on desktop or mobile—covers self-rename and host-driven rename of other participants.

When a meeting is started from a group, DingTalk automatically uses the group nickname. When a meeting is scheduled or started from the meeting entry, DingTalk automatically uses the name from the user's primary organization.

After you rename yourself during a meeting, the new name remains even if you leave and rejoin. It is also used automatically when you start a meeting again from history or calendar, so one rename can continue to take effect.

## Automatic Naming When Joining

1. If a meeting is started directly from a **group**, your **group nickname** is automatically used as your participant name.

2. If a meeting is started from a **scheduled meeting or meeting entry**, your **name in the primary organization** is automatically used as your participant name.

## Participant: Rename During a Meeting on Desktop

After entering a meeting, the permission for participants to rename themselves is enabled by default. During the meeting, the host or co-host can rename participants, and participants can also rename themselves.

During a meeting, click **Members** at the bottom to open the member management panel. Click the icon on the right side of the member, then select **Change In-Meeting Name**.
