If you're using Yahoo mail: -- go to Options (located on the top right corner) - then click general preferences - You will see the default name so just change that to whatever u like.

Click options. It should be on the top right corner of your screen. Then click General Preferences to change your name that appears on your outgoing mails.

By following these 6 steps you can change the name that is shown on all the emails that you send. 1. Log in to your Yahoo! Mail account. 2. Click the "Mail Options" link located near the upper-right area of the Yahoo! Mail page. 3. Click the "General Preferences" link in the middle column. 4. In the From Name box, enter your name exactly as you would like it to appear in the "From:" line of your outgoing messages. 5. If you leave the Reply-To: field blank, your Yahoo! Mail address will automatically be included as the return address of your outgoing messages. If you would like a different return address to be included, enter it in the Reply-To: field. 6. Click the "Save" button to put your new settings into effect. Please note: You must enter a From Name. If it's left blank, the previous entry will be restored, and your changes won't be saved. The Name field cannot contain special characters, such as the "@" symbol. Additionally, the address in the Reply-To: field cannot exceed 40 characters.

Log into your mail account. Click on options then general preferences. Change the "From Name." That's all you have to do. When I got married I didn't know how to do that so I closed my old account and created a whole new account. lol
