Hi Adeel,
Thank you for reaching out to us. I would like to let you know that your verified name in Upwork must still match the name on your payment account, even though your profile name might be different.
It’s simple to keep your profile name up-to-date, but you do need to follow a few guidelines listed here. You can go to Settings > Contact Info to edit your name.

Yes, you can do that. I have done this in the past, but you must have taken special care of one thing. That's your ID. Bank account holder's name. The profile name should be the same. Otherwise, problems may occur

Hi Farah, thanks for guiding
Will there be any problem in my account when i change the name for example earning in my account?
Will doing this keep my account verified or No?

Hi Adeel,
I saw your post in the community, and I'd like to clarify that you can absolutely change your profile name without any issues as long as it follows the guidelines listed here. Just a friendly reminder that your verified name on Upwork should still match the name on your payment account, even if your profile name is different to prevent any issues in withdrawing your funds. If your profile name doesn't meet these guidelines, we might need to restrict your account until you make the change. We may also ask for some supporting documentation to verify your identity.
