Windows 10: Showing different name on my Microsoft Account

Hi,


I’ve installed Microsoft Visual Studio on my laptop and to my surprise upon signing in, it is showing a different name Patrica Marie Jose Maderazo - a name I haven’t heard before. I tried changing it earlier but when I logged in again after 2 hrs in microsoft to verify, it is back again to the same name - Patricia.

Tried changing it again.


I’m currently using Windows 10.
Appreciate your assistance.

:)
