Account name

Is it possible to change your account name? I actually don't care if I can change the username I type in to log into the game...what I want to change is the account name it displays for me in places like guild chat. I was able to set an "alias" for myself on the forums easily enough by editing my profile. Is it possible to do that in-game too?

I have searched and could not find any way to change my display name in game. I really hate that it doesn't use my character name in guild chat I seriously hope this changes soon!

I found out what you have to do. You have to change your user ID. https://help.elderscrollsonline.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/7236/

To be fair, I like that it uses your display name instead of your character name. Guilds in this game don't work like guilds in other games. Guilds are account wide (even if you create a character on another faction you will still be in the same guild). I actually find this quite helpful. It's awesome to not have to message about 5 people "Hey if you're not busy, can you invite my alt to the guild?" due to people being afk. :P
