  <title>Add extra user IDs to a key</title>

  <p>A key can have multiple user IDs. This is helpful when you want to use the
  same key while communicating with several people and one of them does not
  recognize, say, the email address in your user ID. This person may not want
  to import your public key since it contains information that they do not
  know. In such scenarios, if you do not want to create a new key with a
  different user ID, you can attach a new user ID to your existing key.</p>

  <steps>
    <title>To add an extra user ID:</title>
    <item>
      <p>Select the <gui>GnuPG keys</gui> keyring from the left side panel.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>From the list, select the <gui>Personal PGP key</gui> of your
      choice.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Right click on the key and select <guiseq><gui>Properties</gui>
      <gui>Names and Signatures</gui></guiseq>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Click the <gui style="button">Add Name</gui> button to add a new user
      ID.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>In the new dialog, fill in details like <gui>Full Name</gui>,
      <gui>Email Address</gui> and <gui>Key Comment</gui> for the new user
      ID.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Enter the correct passphrase and click <gui style="button">OK</gui> to
      finish.</p>
    </item>
  </steps>

  <p>Your new user ID will now be listed under the
  <gui>Names and Signatures</gui> panel.</p>

  <note style="tip">
    <p>If your key has been published on a key server,
    <link xref="pgp-sync">synchronize</link> it after adding new user IDs to
    update the remote copy of the key.</p>
