How to Edit a contact's name

[spartanguy83]

Thanks in advance for your help. I am new to Android. I imported all my contacts and joined them where needed. However, I have no clue how to edit a contact's name after joining them. Any pointers?:'(

Welcome.
There should be a little picture of a pencil looking thing at the top of the screen if you are looking at the contact info.
Tap that and you can do whatever you need.

Are you trying to edit a "read only" contact (ie - Contact retrieved from Facebook)? Those you can't edit.

It was a contact imported using the ATT address book. When I joined this person's 4 contacts it chose "Betty Smith (home)" as the contact name. I'd like to delete the "(home)" part. BTW Betty Smith is not real, lol!
