How can I change my yahoo mail name?

The name shown on my Yahoo e-mail is wrong, and I can't find how to change it.?

  • When I set up my account, my partner was paying the bills, so at some point in the initial set up I put her name in and ever since, every e-mail I send using Yahoo mail has her name on. It's not the case if I use Windows Live Mail, but I can't use that on my phone. I've not found anything in the e-mail account settings that has amended it, and nothing in the the help that does. Any ideas?

  • Answer:

    Change how your name appears on your emails, On your Yahoo mail page, Click on, Options - mail options - Mail Accounts In the "From name:" box, enter the name you would like people to see on your email header. You can also change the return address. Have a good day R ó G é R

You can change the FROM name and the REPLY TO address on the "Accounts" page. The FROM name can't be blank but you can change it to anything including the email address itself. Click "options ↬ mail options ↬ accounts in left column" Click "Yahoo! Mail" under the "Accounts" heading You can change the "From" name there or click on the link for "Change reply to address". ʎəɿʞɹɐq  ̊ ͜͡● ̊
