you could try something like this

MailAddress from = new MailAddress("[email protected]", "MySiteName");

Like this:

using(MailMessage message = new MailMessage(
        new MailAddress("[email protected]", "Your Name"),
        new MailAddress("[email protected]", "Their Name")
    )) {
    message.Subject = ...;
    message.Body = ...;

    new SmtpClient().Send(message);
}

You will need to enter the SmtpClient's connection settings in Web.config

There are 2 ways, if you are using MailAddress you can use the constructor overload to input the display name, or simply format the recipient address as MySiteName <info@mysitename>

For a downloadable example see here

This is how it works.

MailMessage message;
//prepare message
message.Sender = new MailAddress("Sender-email-id", "Sender Name");
new SmtpClient().Send(message);
