Answer:
Click on the "Options" link in the upper right of your yahoo in-box first. From the page that opens, click on "General Preferences" In this page, at the top in the "From Name" box, change your display name here. Check the form over to see if there are any other changes you might want. Click "Save" when finished.

I'm guessing you have 'Mail BETA'. ------------- EDIT: How can I change how my name appears on my outgoing email? So, you want to go as "Flip" instead of "Frances"? "HotShot" instead of "Lee"? OK, we can do that. Adjusting the "From" field changes how your name appears in other peoples' incoming mail. You can also adjust the email address they'll send a message to when they click "Reply." Here's how to do it: 1. Click Options in the upper-right corner of your Mail page and select Mail Options. 2. From the list on the left, click Accounts. 3. Click Add or edit an account – it’s toward the middle of the page. 4. In the box on the left, click Yahoo! Mail. 5. Click Edit. 6. In the "From name:" box, enter your name how you'd like it to appear in the "From:" line of your outgoing messages. Example: "Sally Tiptoes." This is the name people will see in their Inboxes for messages from you. 7. You can leave the "Reply to:" field blank, so your Yahoo! Mail address is automatically the return address when others reply to you. Or, you can specify a different return address by entering it after "Reply to:". 8. Click Save to put your new settings into effect. Note: The "From name" field can't contain special characters like the "@" symbol. And, the address in "Reply to:" can't exceed 40 characters. Yahoo!

i dont Think u can change it, but if u Can, then i wud think that u should go 2 your mail personal settings & there should be a tag saying somethin like: "change my personal settings" & wen u choose that tab, change your display name.
