Can I change my user ID name?

How can I change my (user name) in Yahoo Id mail?

  • Answer:

    I believe you can not change your main screen name that you used to sign up with. An option you have is to add an Id "screen name" to your account by going to your account settings. Up at the top of your Yahoo page were you see Welcome, you should also see "My Account". There you can sign up another Id and just use that as your primary. Hope that helps!

Are you trying to changing the actual e-mail address or just your display name? If you are trying to change your e-mail address, you can't...you would just have to create another one. However if you just want to change the display name(what shows as your name when you send an e-mail)then when you are in your e-mail go to my account and then you will have to re-enter your password, once that is done you click on my account and then click on edit by member information and you can change your display name there. Don't forget to click on finished.

Before you sign in click the ''forgotten your password?'' and fill in the blanks on the screen. When you scroll to the bottom you will have a choice of changing your password or your user name.
