Can I update the first name and surname for my MyGovID account?

Unfortunately you cannot change the first name and surname that you registered your MyGovID account with. You will need to register a new MyGovID account with a different email address if you wish to use a different name. The first name and surname you provided on registration does not impact the name that will appear on your public services card or verification of your MyGovID account.
