Now that you have changed your name in the Sky|Yahoo settings, any new email you send will be recieved as from you new name.
The name setting on the phone itself, may be in a different place.

You need to use a desktop browser, or a mobile browser in desktop mode to access more settings.

On what device? If it's an iPad you will need to change it to desktop mode.

Re: Change name yahoo email
Are you using your iPad in portrait mode if so turn it round so it is in landscape mode to see if this helps.
