They absolutely can not change the will. They do not hold the power to do such a thing. Their only job is to be responsible for and/or carry out the individuals last wishes made within the will in the exact way the will states.

I believe that anyone can change his/her name (first or last) whenever he/she wishes to do so. You just have to apply for it and follow or requirements.
How do you apply for executor of an estate after last surviving parent passes away?
You need to open an estate with the probate court. You can usually get a packet of the required forms at the courthouse. One of them will be a form asking to be appointed as the executor. The court will then accept the form and issue a Letter of Authorization which gives you the power to do the work necessary. The executor of a will is the person responsible for making sure the wishes of the testator are carried out. They are responsible for paying off the debts and distributing the assets. They also have to pay taxes and file the appropriate reports with the probate court.
Can a executor distribute the estate more fairly?
Absolutely not. That would be a violation of law. One of the most sacred and ancient rights under common law systems is a person's right to decide how her property will be distributed after her death. The executor cannot change the last will and testament. Their legal obligation is to submit the will to the probate court and then follow its instructions to the letter if they are appointed as executor by the court. Until all that has taken place, the person named as executor has no legal authority whatsoever.In this case "fair" is to be judged solely from the perspective of the testator.
Does the executor over a will need a copy of the will?
The executor needs the original so it can be presented to the probate court for examination. If the court allows the will and proves it is the last will of the testator, it will appoint the executor. Only then will the executor have any legal authority to settle the estate. You should consult with an attorney who specializes in probate law.
Can executors who have a copy of a will go to the home of the trustee remove items stated in the will before the person is deceased?
No. A will (i.e. Last Will & Testament) is inactive until a person dies. After a person dies, then the terms specified in the will can be executed by the executor/s of the will. A trustee is usually the name given to a person who is involved with the administration of a "Trust". A "Trust" and a "Last Will & Testament" are not the same legal instruments/documents (although they could be referred to in both documents for an executor/s to implement/follow).
