Greetings Cris,

Assuming you mean Hotmail, it will use whatever name you currently have in your .NET
Passport. To change this name, go here:
https://register.passport.net/editprof.srf

and change the first name/last name to your liking.

Note: you cannot have it automatically "know" your Messenger display name (these things are
separate).
