My husband and I share an email address we need for his name to appear instead of mine when emailing someone.?

The account was open under my name even though we share the address. Instead of my name appearing as being the sender we need his to appear do to his business. How do I change this information without changing our email address?

You need to change your "From" and that will fix your problem.

Click Options in the upper-right corner of your Yahoo! Mail page.
Under 鈥淢anagement鈥? click General Preferences.
Right at the top, in the 鈥淔rom name:鈥?box, enter your name how you鈥檇 like it to appear in the "From:" line of your outgoing messages. Example: 鈥淪ally Tiptoes鈥?
If you want, you can also adjust the email address to which people send messages when they click 鈥淩eply鈥? If you leave the 鈥淩eply to:鈥?field blank, your Yahoo! Mail address is the return address. Specify a different return address by entering it after 鈥淩eply to:鈥?
Click Save to put your new settings into effect.
Note: 鈥淔rom鈥?can鈥檛 contain special characters like the "@" symbol. And, the address in 鈥淩eply to:鈥?can鈥檛 exceed 40 characters.

If you are using the All New Mail then it is a little different. They still are working on the set up.
Click Options >Mail Options >Accounts >Add Or Edit Account >Edit >Save
