Change the name that shows up when I email people

Right now when I email someone, they see my middle name and my last initial. I want it to say my first and last name. I want to keep my email address the same, but I just want to change the name that shows up. Is that possible?

Need to change my first name spelling

Open your account settings. Log in to Facebook and click the Gear icon in the top-right corner of the page. Select "Account Settings".
  • To access this on the mobile app, click the menu button in the top-left corner and scroll down to Account Settings. Select General, and then tap Name.

    Click on your name to open the name editor. You can enter a First, Middle, and Last name, as well as an Alternate name (such as a nickname or maiden name).
    • Your name can only be changed four times.
    • Facebook wants you to list your name as it appears on your credit card or ID.
    • You cannot use symbols, numbers, random capitalization, or punctuation.
    • Your middle name cannot be words or phrases.
    • Nicknames should be variations on your real name (Jim instead of James, Meg instead of Megan, etc.)[1]
  • 3
    Enter your real name. Facebook does not allow you to impersonate someone else, or create a page for a fictional character. Accounts found in violation of this will be forced to change the name.
    • If you want to create an account for an organization, business, or a pet, you will need to create a Facebook Page.
  • 4
    Enter your password. To change your name, you will need to enter your password into the box before you are allowed to save your changes.

Manderson600@gmail.

Depending upon what you use your web based e-mail account for, you have preferences when it comes to your display name.
Your gmail display name is usually the first and last name that you provided when you originally created your account.
Fortunately, you are not locked into the name displayed on gmail account, you can change your gmail name in a few simple steps.

Log into your gmail account using your current gmail address and password.
Make sure to select the "Keep me logged in" box under the log-in fields.
Click the Settings hyperlink in the upper right hand corner of your screen.
It will be located right next to where your email address is at the top of the web browser window.


Click the Accounts and Imports tab in the settings box.
At the bottom of the Accounts and Settings tab, select the Google Account Settings hyperlink.

Select the Edit your Personal Info hyperlink under the personal info section of your google accounts page.
From there, you can change your first name, last name or nickname.
Once you make the desired changes click the save button at the bottom of the page.

Outlook 2007 Contact

Do you remember when you imported the output from your BB? One of the last steps after you have chosen the file to import shows a button for Map Custom Fields. Choose that button and then drag Full Name from the left side to FIRST NAME on the right side. When I did that, Outlook shows them in order of First name.

Because your previous import mapped FullName from BB to Last Name, that's the way it's showing. I tried within Outlook to change it around and it would not change it for me either.

Changing my name

If I am right, what you want to do is change your middle name in your yahoo account...right? If that's the situation, what you have to do is sign in your yahoomail account, click your yahoo ID located in the upper right of your browser right beside the "signout" link (u can find it there if you are using yahoomail classic), don't click signout...

(
Note: If you are using yahoomail beta,click the
"
My Account" link at the top left of your browser)

then click the "edit" link beside the Address/Contact, and edit the middle name you want to change inside the middle name text box and lastly, click the "Finish" button located on the top right or bottom right of your browser, either of the two will do.

Now your maiden name is changed, try sending message and see if it has really changed...thank you! Notify me if it didn't work....If this solution works for you, please give a rate,thank you again!
