Q: Correct duplicate account

My original account, firstnamelastname was renamed WRONGNAME during a reinstall.

 

Recently I tried to correct it and was able to change WRONGNAME to Firstname.

 

However, something went wrong and while all data is in the account, Finder folder icons aren't displaying correctly:

(I've run Disk Utilty to repair errors and done PRAM reset multiple times with no change.)

 

I've also discovered that account firstnamelastname remains.  Is there a way to consolidate account Firstname and Firstnamelastname to correct the Finder error?

iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9)
