    This is bad design. The client created a bad tenant name unknowingly. Now all SharePoint URL links will refer to a user name rather than a company name.

    Surprisingly, cannot even add a separate URL address to make it look at least corporate.

    We are now looking at migrating everything over to a new domain which is going to be beyond painful. Because we can't rename the tenant domain after we re-branded. Why Microsoft ?

    My company rebranded, I cant change the name of Tenant, old name getting exposed every where from TEAMS to SharePoint and Portal. we need it like last month. company name is getting diverted and need to explain to clients each time about this.

    We would like to be able to change this, as our name was set up in another company name

    Need this!! An old admin have our tenant a really bad name, and this needs to be changed. I can't believe it's not possible.

    upon creating our tenant 4 years ago, we had no idea that this would impact our URL forever,

  • Scott Freitag commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Yes Microsoft, please fix this Businesses changing names is not a new thing. There should be that flexibility

  • Brian Hastings commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Creating a new tenant and migrating all of our data is really not an option......changing a tenant name should be!!

  • Mark commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    When signing up direct with Microsoft as a new 365 customer to purchase eg. Business Essentials licences, it should be made explicitly clear that the organisation name entered and which is then used to create the default domain name incorporated into the first user account, eg. admin@contoso.onmicrosoft.com, will be the 365 tenant name which cannot be changed later. This name will, eg. be used in the SharePoint URL, ie. <Tenant name>.sharepoint.com.

    We would need to be able to change this also. we would need to re-use our tenant name but need a new one in Europe (currently US) deleting a tenant takes 140 days, which is absurd and Migrating a tenant to a datacenter of choice is also impossible.

    We want to move our complete tenant name/url to our new charity name in a straight forward A to B scenario but currently not an available option - would be great if this was possible
