LivingDNA updates name match display on Family Networks

LivingDNA (https://livingdna.com) has updated how user names will be displayed on the pages of prospective matches.

From the site:

Your Family Networks Display Name

As part of our ongoing commitment to your security and privacy, we’ve recently made a change to how your name will display to your matches.

If you haven’t set a display name, your matches will just see your initials in their list.

If you’d like to share a name or nickname with your matches, you can update your display name in your profile. This is not a mandatory step, and if you’d only like your initials to display you don’t need to take any action.

Your matches will still be able to contact you through our messaging system, and you can disclose your name to them at this point if you would prefer.
