You have to disconnect and to reconnect. There is no way to ask your client to resend your name to the server, except using a modded client.
So you still can bind :
bind x "player_name Bob;disconnect", you will just have to press enter to reconnect wink

bind f player_name blabla

Sure, all the ways that oblige your client to resend info work, but then just use the graphic interface to change your name...
About a modded client, there is already a function send_info(bool start) in the gameclient.cpp... you just have to make a command resend_info that just call send_info(false);  smile

You can merger this two things:

bind f player_name eugzol; player_skin cammo
