Name Change
I just signed up and I would like to change my display name on my page from Dan Miller (XCI) to Dan Miller (XYZ). I did try Edit Page and Adding a Correction. It didn't work. Is there a way to do this?
Thank you.

Dan: It doesn't work that way. Since "Dan Miller" is a common name, all the "Dan Miller"s listed in IMDb have been assigned roman numerals after their names to distinguish them from each other. You were, apparently, the 91st Dan Miller to get a roman numeral assigned, which made you Dan Miller (XCI), with XCI being the roman numeral for 91. "XYZ" is not a roman numeral so it can't be assigned to you like that. (For that matter, IMDb doesn't normally change the roman numeral assigned to a person except when necessary for data management purposes.)
If you want to distinguish yourself from all the other "Dan Miller"s on IMDb without having to use a roman numeral in parentheses, I think your best bet would be to start using a middle name on your future credits.
