Go to the website that you used to sign up for your screen name (AOL, Yahoo, etc) and login. Once you are logged in, you should see an "account settings" page. This will allow you to delete your screen name.

If you are trying to delete a screen name from a chat client of some kind, right click on the name, and select Remove, or Delete. If you are the one using it, and want it deleted, contact the company who owns the software you are using, and request that they delete or disable it.
