I have a G-Mail Email account

When I set it up I picked a nickname which is being used... I would
NOW like to change the nickname.

Does anyone know exactly how to do this?

Thanks, George in San Francisco

You aren't referring to the e-mail address are you? I dopn't see anything in GMail settings about a nickname or account name.

Once you have logged on go to "settings" then click on the "accounts" tab. At the very top of this page you have "send mail as" to the right hand side of that click on "edit info" and change what you would like to have your new nickname as. It gives you the choice of being seen as your email address or you can enter a nickname. Clear as mud really :-)
