How do I change my name for my yahoo email?

How do i change my name on yahoo page? it's been changed on yahoo email but not on yahoo! opening website

  • I changed my name on Yahoo! email but it still appears the same on Yahoo! opening website and on my email "from". Any suggestions as to how to get my Yahoo! email to read "from me" vs "from other name"?

  • Answer:

    To change your "Welcome" name, (the one on the opening page): 1. Log in to your Yahoo! Mail account. 2. Click "My Account" at the top of the page, near the middle. 3. Enter your password again for verification, and click "Continue." 4. Scroll down to the "Address/Contact" information section and click "Edit." 5. The name you entered in the "First name" field is the name displayed on the Yahoo! Mail Welcome page. 6. To change it, double-click to highlight the current name and then type a new name. 7. Click "Finished" in either the upper- or lower right corner of the page, then again on the Account Information page. To change the name in the "From" field: 1. Click on the "Options" link in the upper right of your yahoo mail page. 2. Click on "General Preferences." 3. In the first box at the top, across from the "From" line, change the name there to whatever you'd like displayed in your outgoing mail. 4. Go to the bottom of the page and click "Save."
