We found the certification used in our SharePoint environment has empty Friendly Name. For assigning an SSL Certificate to a website or domain in IIS or Exchange can be tricky because certificates will be displayed by their friendly name. One example to build trust with OWA servers with SharePoint servers. We would like to add the Friendly Name and here are two different ways you could add or modify it. Here are two common ways to add or update SharePoint 2013 certificate Friendly Name.

1. Use third party tool. To edit the Certificate's friendly name, just run the DigiCert Certificate Management Utility, import the certification, then right click on the certificate you'd like to change then choose Edit Friendly Name.

2. Use certutil command as described in the blog. 

certutil –repairstore –user my {SerialNumber} FriendlyName.inf
