Windows 10: How to change windows default user folder name given after new installation using Microsoft...

Hi, a while ago when I originally made my microsoft account I had named my Profile jorda instead of Jordan and now anytime I go on a new computer my User folder is called jorda and It is really annoying me at this point. Yes I could just change it after the fact but is there a way to have the changes made to my account so that whenever I sign into a new computer and it makes my User it doesnt have the folder name be jorda ?
