Is there a way to change a name on Messenger?

Is there is a way to change my name in Yahoo Messenger-the name that appears to other people in the IM window?

  • My whole name appears when I instant message someone-I just want my first name to appear. Can I change this, or would I have to create a whole new screen name? I have checked all of the Yahoo IM help areas, and can't find an answer.

  • Answer:

    Go to your yahoo messenger friends list. Click on messenger, then click on "my contact details", there is a box in which you could enter your first, last and middle name. Just make sure that only your first name is in there, save it and you're done.
