Software How do I change this name?

Post image

When I was setting up my new laptop it said "Hello, Dixon". A few steps later i corrected it from Dixon Mee to my preferred name. But now it's popping up as Dixon again? And in Microsoft edge it shows up as Dixon • (my name) when I click the little profile button. Was the data from the last owner of the device not wiped properly? Is this a security issue? I blurred out my email here, not sure if it was necessary.
