For commenting on Acrobat CC, how do I change the commenting name from my log-in name to another, more user-friendly name? I tried unchecking the list, but my login name still appears. thank you for any help.
Place a comment on a document, then right-click on that comment and select "Properties". Now go to the "General" tab and change the name. Check the "Make Properties Default" checkbox at the bottom of the dialog and click on "Ok". From now on, the name associated with this type of comment should be updated. You will have to do that for all comment types you are using.

This still isn't working for me. "Always use login name" can be turned on but it has assigned a sort of shortened name, so I'd like to be able to change it via preferences on the comments - but the option is greyed out, lock button unselected (but also greyed out). The current comment name is set to my ex's name so I'd really like it gone! Haha
