When on your profile, click on the "Edit" tab. This will let you correct it. Was it your first name or surname that needed to be changed? If it is the surname, there is an additional link that looks like this:  [edit]

Welcome to G2G!

Unless I'm jumping to conclusions, you probably need to change two fields, James(?): Proper First Name and Preferred Name. If Owens is correct, you do not need to change Last Name at Birth.
