How do you get the beneficiary name changed on savings bonds if the owner has died?

If the owner of the savings bonds has died, then the bonds are inherited by the beneficiary, unless the beneficiary has also died in which case the bonds go to the estate of the beneficiary. If you don't want the bonds to be inhertied by the named beneficiary or the estate of the beneficiary, I would like to know what legal basis you have for taking control of those bonds. We already know that you are neither the owner (who has died) nor the beneficiary. So what is your claim based upon? I doubt that you have any legal basis to change the benefciary.

I think that you're refering to an "irrevocable" beneficiary. This means that the beneficiary designation can only be changed if both the policy holder (owner) AND the current beneficiary sign off on it.
Is it possible to obtain life insurance for another person with their consent without allowing them to change the beneficiary?
Yes. The policy is controlled by the "owner"of the policy. If the insured person is the owner, then the beneficiary should be written as "irrevocable." An "irrevocable" beneficiary can only be changed with the consent of that beneficiary, regardless of who the policy "owner" is. Hope this helps.
