How to change name people see when you send them email?

I need to change the name displayed when people receive emails from me. The name displayed is an organisations name I no longer work for. Please note the email address does not belong to them but was one I created for a specific purpose. I.e: belongs to me via yahoo. Appreciate any input thanks,- have tried the usual suspects but still my name is seen as the organisation. The issue is in the ';from'; ID people see.How to change name people see when you send them email?
