1. Log into Hotmail
2. Click Options (on the right), select More options
3. From the Manage your account section, click View and edit your personal information
4. Find the account you want and click Registered information
5. The first option is Name, so click Change
6. Enter First name and Last name, then click Save

That’s it, quite simple - once you know where to look!
