On the main menu click "Messenger" select "My Profiles" from the menu. This will open a window where you can create, edit, and manage your user profiles. \n\nCreate a new nickname you think would really suit you. Once you create it, it will show up as a new entry in blue. The blue is a link. click on the new ID and it will open the main page for editing Profiles. Select your the name you just created and click edit, set as default.\n\nNow you can use this nickname in the Messenger, in chat room, in groups, in Answers, in any Yahoo! program which uses a nickname. \n\nGood luck and lots of fun

As far as I know,there is no way to change the name you start out with though you can start a new account. Not a big deal I guess, then just let everyone know of the change. Or you can upgrade to a paid service Good Luck

Goto the My Account section and create a separate profile, you can then sign into chat or messenger with this different screen name.
