This might have been how you used to achieve the desired result, however now after IOS 7 i believe, you have to go to the settings app, scroll down to game center tab, then down to your game center profile. Sign in and you can change your "Nickname". I still am looking for a solution to changing your actual name that displays when a friend request is sent. My son has an account that shows my wife's name but his nickname. I signed into his apple ID and fixed his name there but on game center it still shows up as her name. Not sure how to fix this yet.
