### How can I change my account nickname?

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** Your account nickname is separate from your KYC-verified name. If you need to update the name associated with your KYC verification, please [contact our Support team](mailto:support@backpack.exchange) for assistance.
{% endhint %}

The nickname of the **main account cannot be changed**. \
Only sub-account nicknames can be customized. To change it:

* Navigate to the sub-account.
* Click **Portfolio**, then click **Rename**.
* Enter your desired nickname and click **Save**.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://support.backpack.exchange/exchange/exchange-account/account-functions/account-function-guide/how-to-view-your-account-information.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
