Is my Skype ID my email?
Skype Names are similar to your email addresses and phone numbers, but they are different from the names you create when you join Skype for the first time. The Skype Name you receive will be tied to your Microsoft account if you sign in using an email address or phone number instead. What is my Skype name and where can I find it? Make sure that your profile picture is selected.
What is Skype ID used for?
When you first joined Skype, your Skype Name was created automatically. You cannot change or modify this unique identifier used to find you in Skype searches.
Is it safe to share Skype ID?
There is no way you can hide the Skype name from your contacts, which is unfortunate because it is not possible to do so. When they view your profile page, they will be able to see your Skype Name. Having a Skype Name with the format “live:name” will allow it to be possible to guess the domain of the email that is associated with this “name” as well.
Where is the Tools menu in Skype?
You can do so by clicking on “Tools” in your Skype profile on the top-left corner of the screen, which will reveal a drop-down menu. To open your Skype settings, click “Options” on the menu.
