Change the name of my organization

AlvisDou

I am a student version user and when I first purchased the original arcgis, I entered the name of an organization and I now wish I could change the name of that organization, but I can't find the relevant portal.

The red boxed area obscured by the mosaic in the picture is the current organization name, but I want to change it. Please help me thanks.

There are a couple of things that you can consider, one is a minor update the other has more significant implications.

To change the name of your organization, you can go to Settings > General and change the name of your organization. This is easy and low-overhead, all you are doing is changing the name - not the URLs to your content.

The other option is to change the URL to your organization and its content.

This is a lot more problematical as it potentially impacts anything you've publicly shared. I've done this twice in organizations with not a great deal of content, and it still required a significant amount of post-change curation. 

Name is easy and without significant implications, shortcut not so much. So I'd recommend if you just want to change the name to do the former, not the latter.
