joyb,
The name that shows up in the groups is the name that is set up with your email address on your computer. The only way to change it is to change it in your email account on your computer.

However, if you do that (change it to just your name), then all the emails you send will have just your name, not your husband's name.

Depending on your email provider, you might be able to set up more than one email account. If you have that as an option, you can set up a separate one for just yourself.

If you don't have the option of more than one email address from your provider, the only other way I can think of is to go to one of the free, online email services (e.g. http://www.gmail.com) and set up a separate email address for yourself from that service. When you set that up, you just use your own name. Then you subscribe to the Yahoo lists using that address (you dont have to unsubscribe and re-subscribe. Yahoo lets you change your email address or add others.)

If you were to do it that way (get a gmail or Yahoo address) then you have to remember to check that account along with your regular email.

Hope that helps,
Kitty
