If you're referring to the section depicted in the below screenshot, all you have to do is tap on it and then make the necessary changes.

You're going to want to create a contact for yourself, then go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and then scroll down to "my info" and select the contact you created. This should automatically update your card at the top of your contacts

Switch the phone off and back on, it should update the name on the card and picture.

Apple support told me there was no way to do this but there is and it's easy.

First, add new contact (make it anything)

Then, go to settings > contacts > my info and tap the new contact you just made.

Finally, go to contacts list from main screen, tap the my info thing at the top, and delete the contact that it's set to. I had to restart for this to take effect, but it worked.
