I need to change my name on my computer, but it keeps asking for a login and password and every time I try to put it in It says it is incorrect.

apparently i tried to change the username before and was only half way successful, and now I cannot loggin to change it completely and it still shows the dumb username I had in the beginning. SOS help.
