Your visible alias
A displayname is the name shown publicly on a digital platform, as distinct from a username or account ID used for login.
Displaynames typically allow spaces, special characters, and duplicates that usernames don't: Her username is jsmith42 but her displayname is "Jane Smith 🌸".
Common in gaming, social media, and messaging apps.
