You can rename the profile in AD and she will only see the new name on the logon, but the old directory name will remain.

If you really want to do this

The easiest method (there are several)

1. create new profile

2. copy old profile over the top of new profile.

3. set permissions for entire file structure (advanced permissions) for full access by new user.

4. logon to pc and test.

This may have errors on the logon - in which case you will have to go through the registry settings of the server to see what parts of the structure are updating or not.

You can also try to convince her to keep her maiden name.
