YouTube Creators Can Now Change Their Channel Names
Image sourced from Variety YouTube has announced that it’ll now be easier for creators to change their name and profile picture on channels. “Until now, creators had to change their name and icon for their entire Google account — so their name on YouTube would be the same name they send emails from in Gmail,” reports The Verge. “That didn’t necessarily make sense from a branding or professional perspective, and the new system should offer a bit more flexibility for creators who might prefer to send emails under their actual name instead of their channel name.” /* custom css */ .tdi_3_087.td-a-rec-img{ text-align: left; }.tdi_3_087.td-a-rec-img img{ margin: 0 auto 0 0; } There is one catch, however, creators with a verification badge will have to reapply if they decide to change their name....
