I've recently changed my last name and although I've created an alias (now @icloud.com sadly instead of @mac or @me!) I can't figure out how to change my name so that the 'sender' name reflects my name change. Any help gratefully received! Just one of the many tasks I need to complete to change my name and not off to a good start!
