Flickr lets you showcase your photography and connect with other photographers. When you create your account, you choose a name, but you can update it anytime. Whether you want to use your real name or a creative display name, changing it is straightforward.
Flickr has two types of names you can customize: your real name and your display name. Both can be modified in just a few steps.

- 2.Click on your profile icon in the top-right corner of the screen
- 3.Select "Settings" from the dropdown menu
- 1.Navigate to the Profile section in your account settings
