Windows 8.1 changed the Admin user name

I have a user who has a new Lenovo Windows 8.1 laptop. After downloading an app from the app store, Windows changed the Admin user's name to the email address that was used for the App Store. This is my first 8.1 system (the rest of the systems in the company are Win 7.) How do I change the Admin name back to what it was when I set up the machine for the user? Incidentally, Windows didn't ask if I wanted the name to change -- it just did it on the next reboot. Incidentally, while the name of the admin changed on the splash screen every time the user logs in with their password, I still have the original name in the c:/users/<name> directory -- that didn't change. I just don't want that email address to display every time I need to log in as the Admin.
