User name and password

I got my brother's old macbook, so I thought I should change the user name & pw. But when I restart, my brother's name still appears, but my new pw worked. I can't modify the settings because it will prompt me for the user name & pw. The one I made or my brother's username & pw doesnt work anymore. Help please.
