How to change my name in my e-mail address?

Yahoo email - how change or remove name from email address?

• I am using the Yahoo Classic email setup. I changed from my actual name to a pseudonym in the email options but my actual name still shows up on sent emails. On other Yahoo questions and answers, I noticed that the options after hitting "options" is different. On my email account, the options button on the upper right leads to: Mail Options, Colors, Mail Plus and Switch to All-New Mail. From Mail Options, a left hand column has: General, Signature, Spam, Accounts, POP, Vacation Response, Contacts, Calendar, Notepad, ACCOUNT INFO. From Account Info, I went to Profile Info and changed my actual name to the pseudonym and that does appear in the Yahoo greeting etc. But, on emails, my actual name still shows up. HOW COME? So, how do I get rid of my actual name? If I go under "General" or "Accounts", I don't have the "From" and "To" fields that other people talk about.
