Weapon Design Contest Rename Service Inquiry

I'm not sure where to post this as I attempted to post in technical support etc but was told I'm not allowed.

I entered the weapon design contest under the name Gallow Dance, which was my characters name at the time and have since changed. At first I wasn't going to change until I received feedback but I emailed support weeks ago and got no response and I absent minded-ly changed anyway.

My question is will this affect my chances of winning because if any of my designs win or are runners up under the name Gallow Dance will this not allow them to contact me? This is my first design contest entry so I'm not sure how it works, how they contact the winner or if the entries are linked to my Lodestone account (when I do type in my old Lodestone by new one does appear so hopefully this is the case)
Sorry for the bloated post, I struggle to articulate sometimes.

Thank you and take care.
