I am very new to Drupal and am developing a site to manage teams participating in a contest, when someone signs up, rather than calling them a 'user', I would like them to be a 'team' - so they would see 'Team Name' instead of 'User Name'. Is this possible?

Go to admin/locale/string/search and replace the string "user" with "team".

Ok, thanks for the response - I found the locale section and am on the search section. I cannot find anywhere here to change or replace a string.

There is a input field "search" where you can search for a string, in this case "user".
Click on the "search" button and then edit the found strings.

I can't believe it.
Do you run an english localized version of Drupal?

Ok, so the issue here is that I'm new at this and I just learnt another thing.

Turns out you need to select the language and make it your default before populating the locale database.
