    You can move your mouse over your account like the little "Hi, name" then it will have a options bar that comes down and says

    Profile

    Account Info

    then click on profile and click on edit and then just change your display name and other privacy preferences :)

    Make sure you save it after you change it! :)

    Good Luck! :D
