Virtual Court Kiosks are perfect for attending a meeting with an attorney, participating in a virtual clinic, or attending a court hearing online. Virtual Court Kiosks are set up with video meeting software already, so all you need is your meeting information. To learn more about how to join a virtual meeting, read more here.
When you enter a Zoom meeting, you will automatically enter with the name "Kiosk" or "Guest". Please make sure to change your name so others can see who they are speaking with.
Once you're in a Zoom meeting, click on Participants on the bottom toolbar. This should bring up a list of the meeting participants on the right of your screen.
Hover your mouse over your name (in the example below, "Kiosk(me)") until you see the button for More >.
Click on More > and then on Rename.
Please enter your first and last name. Then click OK.
You should now see your real name listed.
Before joining a Teams meeting you are able to add your name to the "Enter Name" section then click "Join Now".
Presently, Teams does not allow you to change your name while in a browser meeting. With this being said, it is important to enter your name correctly before joining the Teams meeting.
If you're a participant, you can only change your own in-meeting display name.
Edit the participant from the video thumbnail, or participants list:
Edit the display name, and click Save.
Both hosts and participants can change the display name in the CourtCall application during a hearing. Hosts can change the names for other participants, but participants can only change their own name. This is done in the participant sidebar.
Hover over your name
Click on the βset display nameβ which is accessed via the icon that looks like a pencil. This opens a form that can be edited and saved.
Once confirmed, via the check mark, the display name will update and will be visible by others in the meeting.

In the video thumbnail, hover over the participants or video device, and click More options > Edit display name.
