Hey! Can you tell us what version of Github Desktop you’re using? Go into Settings and select About Github Desktop.

Hey @thewizardwand, thanks for opening this! I've opened #8541 which should hopefully address this issue. As a workaround for now you can either manually set your name by modifying the .gitconfig file directly or by using git config --global user.name "🦸‍♂️" from a command line.
