How is the name of the account or mailbox created?
UWB IT uses an official naming convention on all new accounts and mailboxes. This convention is first initial, then the last name. For example Jane Doe, would have the username: JDoe. If there are identical usernames already in the system, letters are added from the first name then middle name to set a unique identifier. From the example above, if John Doe were later hired, his username would be: JoDoe. Hyphenated last names default to using the last name after the hyphen. If someone believes they have an important case for changing their username such as; married names or unfortunate letter combinations, they are encouraged to contact the helpdesk (it@uwb.edu, 425-352-3456) with specifics.
