Change your sending name in New Yahoo Mail

? Still not seeing the right sending name? Some third-party apps and email clients have their own sending name setting, which bypasses the New Yahoo Mail setting. If they show a different name than the one saved in your New Yahoo Mail settings, update those settings or contact the manufacturer for assistance.
