Yahoo messenger 8?

you cant change the name of your screenname... unless you make a new one.

I take it that your last name is Parker or that is the last name that you put in your account information. This link will explain how to make sure only the name you want showing shows.

REAL NAME SHOWING ISSUE

The link below will take you to a site that explains in detail how to prevent your real name from showing across all yahoo services, it is the best explanation I have found anywhere. Know also that in a PM the only name that people see of yours is what is in the blue shaded area at the top of the pm box not what it says in the white text area. And the name showing at the top of your instant messenger only you can see BUT your real name can show in other areas like when someone adds you to their friend’s list and even in yahoo mail so please read this article.

REAL NAME SHOWING: If you are concerned about this read this article >> http://www.wackyb.co.nz/yahoo!_first_and... . It will explain how to prevent/change this across all Yahoo services.

I hope this helps you and please remember to vote if it does. Thanks.

Just change your disp[lay name it can be different than your screename
