If you booked your ticket with a travel agency, you'll need to contact the agency so they can help you with the ticket name change.

If you booked your ticket online, you'll need to contact American Airlines directly so they can help you with the name change on your ticket.  It's important that your name on the ticket match your passport name, especially if you're traveling international.  It will be beneficial to take care of this before you travel, rather than experience stress and problems during your travel.
