Alternative names?

I see an alternative name listed on a page I'm trying to edit, but when I go to edit it, that category does not come up as an option. How do I edit an alternative name?

Hi, carlya. Welcome to the forum of/for the IMDb Community! Altering alternative names involves submitting corrections to at least one filmography item bearing an "as" attribute. Mind you please that each of these credits is required to be representative of what appears in the on-screen credits sequence of a movie or television series episode. I'm not aware of any other way to manipulate the appearance of the alternative names section apart from people being able to request removal of the section entirely for their respective IMDb name pages: https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/names-biographical-data/can-i-remove-alternate-names-listed-on-my-imdb-name-page/GHX5ZDWNL7D98C3Q#. Maybe you would like to propose as an idea that more options be made available?

@jeorj_euler​ Thank you! I see the "as" attribute, but I still don't see a way to edit it.
