How to add a nickname for my numbers

In this article:

Did you buy a great new vanity number that just so happens to spell out something like 800-COOL-CAR but when you log in to your account you just see 800-266-5227.

You might benefit from adding a nickname for your numbers so you can see both the numbers and the spelling. Or perhaps you want to easily differentiate between your home and business number. Regardless, nicknames can also be immensely helpful if you have more than one number in your account and need to quickly identify them.

Here are the steps to add a nickname for your numbers:

• Login to your account
• Click Numbers
• Click on the number that needs a nickname
• Go to Options
• Enter a Nickname and click Save Changes at the bottom of the page

On a side note, the nickname has no impact on the callerID that is displayed when you call other people and businesses. To learn more about CNAM, check out the following article:
