Your name is spelled incorrectly somewhere in the AD. Most likely the Display Name is wrong. Correct the spelling in the AD first. Then you will need to recreate your outlook profile.

Outlook resolves the alias name that is specified in the Display Name box for the mailbox, and then uses that display name in the Outlook user interface. You can change itAD User properties.MCSE,CCNA,VCP,APP
