Edit business name on Schedule c

TurboTax asked me for a business name on my Schedule C after putting in a 1099-MISC, I thought it was referring to the name of the company I got the 1099 from so I think I labeled my Sole Proprietorship as the company's name by accident. How can I edit this, and what should I put as my business name?

The business name is in the Business Profile. If you do not have a specific name for your business (many people do not), you can use your own name for your business name. There will be a check box to default to this selection.

Use these steps to go to the Business Profile to edit your business name:

On the top row of the TurboTax online screen, click on Search (or for CD/downloaded TurboTax locate the search box in the upper right corner)
This opens a box where you can type in “schedule c” (be sure to enter exactly as shown here) and click the magnifying glass (or for CD/downloaded TurboTax, click Find)
The search results will give you an option to “Jump to schedule c”
Click on the blue “Jump to schedule c” link
Click Edit beside the business name
Click Edit beside Business Profile
Click Edit beside Business Name
