It probably starts out from the information in your browser/mail system, from which it goes to Yahoo. If you change the name in your mail system software, your Yahoo name may change also -- but your Yahoo registration may be affected.

When you set up your email account, it requires that you put you first and last name in. Therefore whenever you send something now.... your first and last name is sent as the person sending the email. The only way to get around it is too put in a fake name when you set up the account.
