Want to know how to change your name

I was wondering if there's a quick and easy way to change the main character's name? I'm tried arcanum editor 1.8 (didn't have editing the name as an option) and editing the save file with notepad (corrupted the file) and had no luck with either. The topics I've seen about hex editors seem much more complex than I'm looking for (but if it's simpler, I'm open to it). Is there a simple way to do this? Or do I just need to start again from the beginning if the character's name is bugging me that much? Seems like this should be simple compared to everything else handled on this forum, but I haven't seen anything addressing it.

Thanks in advance for help rendered.
