Changing the name my echo calls me

How do I get my echo dot to acknowledge me by another name ?  Currently it hears my voice but calls me "Heather" and my name is Kim.

How does it call you a different name? LOL. My echo does not call me by my name. I googled how you can do that. Something about household profile and call settings. I don't have both, that's why. LOL.

DOT is calling you Heather for a reason.  Check your settings.  Which name is registered to your DOT?

@ asianrocker
FWIW....
My DOT doesn't call me by name either.  No smart devices or cell phone.

My Google Homes call me by my grandmother name because I said "Hey Google, call me Grammuffy"  ;D
I love it!
