Never had to do this before so not sure of the implications.

I need to change the name of a Windows domain user. Not their logon name thankfully, but rather their Forename, Surname & Initial etc.

Are there any "gotchas" I need to look out for? As I'm not changing their logon account name, I'm presuming most things will be fine. One thing I can think of is email addresses, as our default policy uses various permutations of forename, surname and initials but presumably this will just regenerate automatically.

Anything else I need to watch out for?
