Problem With Roll Display When Using D&D Beyond and Beyond 20

We use D&D Beyond with Beyond 20 and I am frustrated by the fact that when I roll in D&D Beyond, the display on Roll20 shows my user name and not my character name. I have seemingly tried everything and other people in my group seem to have their rolls display their character. We have compared settings in D&D beyond, Beyond 20, and Roll 20 with no success. Any ideas? 

My character is Urag.

Hi Chris B., 

I suggest contacting the folks behind Beyond20 for this issue as it is provided by a 3rd party and is not a Roll20 product. 

The solution could come from one of three places: D&D Beyond, Beyond 20, or Roll20 (or a combination I suppose). I will ask each community if anyone has seen this and what to do to solve it.

Do you have a character in your Roll20 game that has the exact same name as the character on D&D Beyond?

I usually shorten the name of my characters on Roll20 (don't use the last name). I'll give that a try...thanks!

Jarren...brilliant!!!
That was exactly the issue! I added my character's last name and it worked, THANK YOU for your help!!
