Could someone advise me on the best way to change my name on credits listed....
My page listing is Robert J. Johnson, but on most projects I am to be listed as Robert Johnson.
I am not sure how to change the listings on projects to Robert J. Johnson as Robert Johnson.
Any help with this correction would be appreciated.

Thanks
Robert J. Johnson

If you are going to be credited on screen primarily as Robert Johnson, then that should be your primary name (the name at the top of your Name Page).

The Primary name section of the Submission Guide: Names is very explicit about this, stating :
General Rule: The primary name for a person in the IMDb is the one by which they are most often credited.
If you are to be credited this way, then you should change your Primary Name. Because there are a large number of Robert Johnsons you would be Robert Johnson (CVII)
