This feels like something that should be easy to solve but I can't figure out how. I've noticed several occasions lately where my street name appears as my name... so I'll get emails and packages addressed to 'XXXX Road, 7 XXXX Road...' rather than my name. I don't remember this ever happening before a few weeks ago but it seems to be happening more and more often now. It's already caused confusion with one vendor and I'm sure it will cause more. I can't see how to edit this info. Any pointers? Thanks 🙂

Hello @Humbert15,
Thanks for posting your first question on the PayPal Community!
I understand that your address has been displaying your name incorrectly lately, and I'm sorry to hear that. If your name and address both show correctly under your PayPal Settings, it sounds like a gift address may have been saved incorrectly. Gift addresses can only be edited/deleted by Customer Support. You can reach Customer Support by clicking 'Contact' at the bottom of any PayPal website.
Best wishes!
