Default Name displays incorrectly

Windows Messenger: My family tells me that my name
appears incorrectly in their list of Contacts. I've
signed into my account, selected Tools-Options and
entered my name correctly in the block under "Type your
name as you want other users to see it". Have I missed a
step?

Greetings John,

If you've changed your display name where you indicated, then it should show up as that name
for all your contacts. What are they seeing?
