About display names
Note:
Depending on your messaging service plan, you might not be able to add email addresses or create a BlackBerry® email address for
your BlackBerry device.
The Your name field, or display name, displays the name that appears in the From field of email messages that you send from your BlackBerry
device. The display name identifies you as the sender of an email message in a friendly, informal way. For example, if your email address is
[email protected], you could specify Justin as the display name.
Display names are sometimes referred to as common names or friendly names.
You can specify a display name for your BlackBerry email address and any integrated email addresses.
