After you are signed into your Gmail account. Go to the link below. This will allow you to change your name. You can also navigate to the same page from within your Gmail page by clicking your profile picture in the upper right and click Account.
https://www.google.com/settings/personalinfo



NOTE: If you haven't already done so, I would change your password.

SOURCE: Gmail got hacked. I wa able to get it back, but

Hi and welcome to FixYa!

Unless they didn't empty out your trash folder,

you have another email server that the mail goes to something like incredimail, outlook, etc.

Or it went to spam, those will not be able to be recovered.

You should make sure to look in your settings though if you were hacked. Many times,

hackers put in their own email as an alternate email and when you change passwords, security

questions etc, they will now get all of your mail also!

Change everything and look to see if there is an alternate email attached to your account that you

don't recognize. Sorry for the bad news.

SOURCE: hacker got my gmail password & changed it. Now locked out.

Ask for password change. I think you have provided a secondary email. if not google will ask you for a secondary email in the password reset process. And you will have a new password.

I log into my g-mail account,another persons name & address keep appearing

HI Sharon,

Sounds like your email account with gmail has been hacked and under control by another person. However, im not sure about what you wrote about you logged into your email account by using your own email and password with gmail then ....what happened did you logged in successfully or not?
if you did logged in your gmail account successfully then after you logged in you see your profile name has been changed to another person name and so on the address also has been changed too then it definitely means your gmail account has been hacked by another person who did know your email address and password and that person logged into your gmail account and he or she changed your profile info and gain control to use your gmail account. This issues are not difficult all you need to do is logged in to your gmail account then on the upright conner you would see profile name of you or may be of another person name just click on it and click on MY ACCOUNT from there all you need to do is to review all of personal information and make correction back your your own profile. Once you finish to make correction then the last step is you MUST CHANGE YOUR GMAIL PASSWORD so that the hacker no longer can access your gmail account anymore.
Now you need to do a second step and this is very important it regarding why and how the hacker could gaining control of your gmail account because some of the computers you did use to get online and logged in to your gmail account ( it could be your home computer or laptop or it could be any computer outside your home but you did one time use it to check your email) Those computers or laptops you has used they has been infected by trojan or malware that is why the hacker could pull out your personal info such as email address or password. Now we are talking about your computer or laptop at home : to prevent those hacker again can gain control to access your computer without your knowledge so that they can pull out your new gmail password ! After you fix your gmail profile and change new gmail password you need to do next is to clean up and remove the virus, malware, trojan horse ....etc whatever it is which infected inside your computer. Then you will be safe.

If you can not do it by yourself ( to remove infected file on your computer) then you really need professional help to get your computer services by a computer tech.

Good Luck.
