My name does not appear in the "From" field at the recipient end, only my email address. Can I have my name appear? Both appear in the "From" field when I'm composing. Thunderbird v 38.3.0 Thank you

Right click the account in the folder pane and select settings. Select the account name in the folder Make sure your name is added as well as the from address. being correct.

I more recent development is providers changing this information when it goes through their servers. I do not see well enough to make out your provider, but check in their web mail system that your name is also included. They may be substituting what you put for what they have on their record.
