only on your screen, the person you are typing to will see your email name. i was tripping about that same thing until my sister told me she saw my email name.

that's how you've configured your options...you can change this in the options menu to display Full Name, Screen Name, or custom-made nickname.

well when u go to open your messenger do not open it sign up to make a new yahoo name and change it from there they have it to where u could either use your first,last name as sn or u can pick the option to make your own screen name.its very easy.or just your yahoo profile and edit profile information should help either way. = ) GL
