I've been following this guide to send emails using Amazon SES: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/786596/How-to-Use-Amazon-SES-to-Send-Email-from-PHP
This worked fine and I was able to send emails. What I want is to also be able to display the name of the sender instead of just the email address when the receiver gets the email.
What I currently have now is:
$msg = array();
$msg['Source'] = "[email protected]";

On the All metrics tab, choose SES. Choose the dimension name that you entered when you created the configuration set. For example, choose ses:caller-identity. Under the ses:caller-identity column, you'll see the IAM user who sent the test email.
From the navigation pane, under Email Sending, choose SMTP Settings. Choose Create My SMTP Credentials. For IAM User Name, you can accept the default name, or enter a new name. Choose Create.
I figured it out. If anyone has the same issue just format it like in the example below:
$msg['Source'] = "My Name <[email protected]>";
