Sorry for the ambiguity.  SOP is to change all the other stuff when they have a 
name change which we already did.  My Google-Fu only brought up info on how to 
change the account name. when I was looking on how to change the info at the 
top.

The OP said the only thing he changed was the account name.

Agreed.  Totally.

But in those unique instances where no isn't an option, can't you blow away the 
user's Outlook profile and recreate?  Won't that change that one innocuous 
little display item that no one except the user can ever see?

 We're using Outlook 2010 and have a user that got married.  At the top of the 
Outlook 2010 client it says, "Inbox - 
[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> - Microsoft Outlook".  She 
wants that changed.  My Googling is just coming up with how to change the 
account name (File, Account Settings, Account Settings, double-click on the 
account name, More Settings..., and then change "Type the name by which you 
would like to refer to this account".  That's not working.  I'm sure there's a 
way to do this, but I'm not finding it.  Can somebody throw me a suggestion?
