You can't just change the name. This is system driven.
You have to create a new user with the name you want to use.
Give that user administrative privileges.
Then that user has to take possession of the first users files.
Then you delete the first user.

If that effort is worth it to you, write back an you will find someone that will give you detailed
instructions.

You would have to change it by a registry hack. Why would you want to?
