How do i change the name on a yahoo home page alternate account?

Answer 1

Click Options in the upper-right corner of your Mail page and select Mail Options.

Click ‘General Preferences’.

In the "From name:" box, enter your name how you'd like it to appear in the "From:" line of your outgoing messages.

Example: "Jane Doe", This is the name people will see in their Inboxes for messages from you.

You can leave the "Reply to:" field blank, so your Yahoo! Mail address is automatically the return address when others reply to you.

Or, you can specify a different return address by entering it after "Reply to:".

Click Save to put your new settings into effect.

Note: The "From name" field can't contain special characters like the "@" symbol. And, the address in "Reply to:" can't exceed 40 characters.
