My display name isn't changing (steam)

I changed my username on steam to an emoji and played apex, and it showed two empty boxes in game. When I changed my username on steam back to something normal, my display name on apex was normal until I went in a game. When I was in game my display name changed back to the two empty boxes. As soon as I returned to the menu my display name was back to normal. I will attach an image of what my banner looks like and what my display name in the menu looks like. Is there a fix for this?

    Hey @iixhsif,

    Silly question, did you restart the game after you changed your name the second time to see if that fixes it?

    Yes, I did. I changed my name multiple times on steam, and it changes in the main menu of the game, but as soon as I join a game (any game mode) it changes to the two empty boxes. When I return to the menu again, it changes to what it is on steam. My friends also see my name as two empty boxes in game and normal in the menu.
