Profile first-last name of onenote.com do not match new first-last name changed in its Microsoft account

I have changed the first & last name of my onedrive.com profile.  However, when going to onenote.com I see the old  first/last name at the top-right of the web browser.  In onenote.com I created a new notebook and I return to onedrive.com, right-click on the new notebook name and click Details, in the right side under "Added",  the old first/last name is displayed.  How can I fixed this and have my new profile name appear when in onenote.com and have my new profile names when seeing the details of any onenote files in onedrive.com?

I think.  But reading your entry, assuming changes may be time-dependent, I will connect and see if the same...

No change.  Since the 31st of March, same username in OneNote.  If I go to OneDrive.com and log in I get the name I changed.  
 But if I right-click on the OneNote notebook in OneDrive and click Details, I get the old name prior profile-change.  Also, in OneNote.com still old name (upper right side).
For OneDrive, is it the business or personal account? That can get confusing.  And is NoneNote.com under the business?

Both onedrive and onenote are personal account (no business accounts)
