  Hi there, have you tried disconnecting LinkedIn in Publicize and then reconnect it? https://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#reconnecting-services

  Hi there,

  Where exactly is it misspelled? If you mean under the connection options in My Site ->Sharing, we have no control over that. Your name as it appears there is what we received from LinkedIn when you connected, so if it’s wrong there it’s wrong on your LinkedIn profile.

  If you’ve changed things on LinkedIn but it hasn’t updated on our end, disconnect from My Site ->Sharing and ALSO disconnect from WordPress in your LinkedIn app settings:

  https://www.linkedin.com/psettings/permitted-services

  Then clear your browser cache and cookies before logging back into LinkedIn and WordPress.com, and reconnecting.
