Google Calendar – How to Change Your Name

google-calendar

When I look at the settings of one of my calendars in Google Calendar, it says Calendar Owner. And the string that comes after that looks hideous. It goes something like this:

"my.name@gmail.com" <my.name@gmail.com>

In addition, if I look at the XML of a shared calendar, the author tag looks like this:

 <author>
   <name>my.name@gmail.com</name>
   <email>my.name@gmail.com</email>
 </author>

I've been looking for ages now, but I simply can't figure out how to change that name. And I really want to, cause it looks wrong and ugly. Does anyone have an idea?

Unfortunately, there is no current way to change the Google calendar owner.
