How do I change the name people see when I message them?

I changed it a long time ago to say a different name that looks real but I want it to show my Yahoo ID again. How do I change it back?

Changing it in your 'My Contact Details' should do it. Works for me.


you can go to messenger menu and click on my profiles and create as many profiles as you want and you can control ur name to any user.

My Account, up here, click on it. You'll be asked to verify your password again, do that. It's for Security to ensure you are better protected. In the Profile page that opens, click on Edit/Create Profiles under the "Public Information" and "public Profiles" headings that you'll find in the Grey box on the upper right hand corner.right at the beginning, in small blue glowing type saying"Edit". Click on it. This is in the line right where it reads Yahoo Profile for ...

On the top, of your profile that opens before you, click on Edit Profile Information.

Now make your changes in the relevant box you wish to alter and don't forget to click the button that reads "Save changes" at the bottom tight hand corner.

This should help you resolve this issue.

Cheers.
